Why is this going for long time? As in, what is "Privacy" for future
generations if every such records are lost everywhere. I guess, that the
companies and "GOVERNMENT" should think of investing money on protecting
DATA from LOOSING it rather than on FORENSICS that is helpful only if the
evidence is in hand. Well, the simple logic is that "No Evidence, no use
of
forensics". So best is to avoid people storing CONFIDENTIAL data on
portable
devices no matter what their security clearance level is. The other best
thing is to use always track data that goes in and out of the network. The
next is to not let people whom you dont know into the building
itself(perimeter) and to restrict people from moving from one department
floor to the other or something of that sort(perimeter protection). Cant
these be simple for people to take action on ?

If this does not get better soon I'm afraid the Government is going to step
in and get their hands involved -Oh, never mind. They are already.




thanks
