1. Comment - Laptop Theft Exposes 243k Credit Cards

   (Jun 5, 2006 - 11:26 AM)

   This has nothing to do with IT Administrators. For one thing it's not their job. I'm so tired of people always blaming the Admins. Most of these people never have been on the other side and have no clue. Do they think that because the data is on a laptop then it’s IT’s responsibility? Well then what the hell are the Legal, HR and top level Exec’s doing? Delegating all of these decisions to the Admins? I seriously doubt it…
   
   This is a corporate policy issue. If the data is sensitive then it should not be allowed of site. You think the CIA has floppy drives in their machines (god forbid laptops)? No, you know why? So the data doesn’t leave the building period. I don't care if it encrypted, written in hieroglyphics or pig Latin. If the right person gets a hold of the data consider it compromised. This is about top level executives not being responsible with customer information.
