Laptop Encryption: Stolen Laptop Leads To Second Burglary.

I ran across a story that, as far as I know, is the first of its kind: proof that laptop thieves don’t just blast away the current information on a stolen laptop and sell it as quickly as possible.  Oh, no.  They’re willing to see what they can find on the laptop, which is why […] read more

Medical Data Breach Lawsuit: Dorn VA Not At Fault, Veterans Not Harmed Says Government.

The government has argued that veterans who are suing the William Jennings Bryan Dorn VA Medical Center for a data breach did not formally experience any harm, and that the lawsuit ought to be dismissed.  Honestly, I don’t know why the government is this position.  Per my understanding, the VA was set to have laptop […] read more

Canada Data Encryption: Bureaucrats Ponder Burning Garbage, Hiring Dumpster Divers To Avoid Data Breach.

Ineptitude.  This is the word that leapt to my mind as I read a story about Canadian bureaucrats who considered a couple of different ways to “avoid repercussions over” the loss of a USB memory stick.  These kinds of incidents wouldn’t make the news if encryption software is used to protect and secure sensitive data.
