I stand corrected, Lyger; I got my numbers mixed up with
an analysis I'd done of the largest breaches that did NOT
involve stolen laptops/desktops/tapes/etc. - essentially
breaches of live, running systems which could not have been
prevented by full-disk or storage-device based encryption.

Thanks for the link reference.

Arshad,

Curious about what criteria is used when making this statement.  A search 
on etiolated.org shows 13 events with more than 3.4 million records 
involved in breaches.  Perhaps I'm not aware of what source you're using?
