  In the Computer Misuse Act, there's this part:
  
  

  such other device as the Minister may, by notification in the Gazette, prescribe;

  Can't find a definition of it anywhere... and I don't know which definition to use from the Google search...
  
  Also, this Computer Misuse Act section:
  
  

  Unauthorised disclosure of access code
  8. —(1) Any person who, knowingly and without authority, discloses any password, access code or any other means of gaining access to any program or data held in any computer shall be guilty of an offence if he did so —
  
  (a) for any wrongful gain;
  
  (b) for any unlawful purpose; or
  
  (c) knowing that it is likely to cause wrongful loss to any person.

  So if an organization loses (in terms of financial), can sue or not?

  erm u didnt post out the entire context so I cant say for sure, but assuming the "notification" part is as "published", it means that a computer device, as defined by whatever minister, being published through papers, thus notifying the public (creating awareness).
