Everett-based Compass Health has issued a security advisory to clients
that one of its laptop computers was stolen in late June - but there is
no indication that the personal data and social security numbers
contained in the computer were used for identity theft.

The advisory affects a limited number of people, including those served

offices.

People affected by this theft should have received letters from Compass
Health, an agency that helps people who suffer from mental illness.
