For that to happen, it has to get on a general news outlet like the
Today show or the evening news. Dataloss is a huge problem yet when I
talk to organizations about something as simple as encrypting off-site
back-ups, they don't perceive the need even with all the coverage of
tapes falling off the back of a truck or being stolen. It's somebdoy
else's problem.

Nothing will happen until there is a financial reason--meaning legal
fees and fines--or jail time for execs.
