MOD looses **347** laptops in 4 years...

Now call me naive, but any business who's employees managed to loose 
that many laptops in 4 years would surely be asking some very serious 
questions about it's IT policy. And that isn't the worst of it, not be a 
long, long way....


At least 3 have full personal details of *serving military personnel* 
and no, it wasn't encrypted. Those weren't lost, they were STOLEN.

If the Military won't secure data about their own offices held on their 
own hardware, who in their right mind would trust ANY organization, 
government or commercial to store personal data?

Surely it's time encrypting hard drives became standard on ALL laptops?
