Sadly, I must disagree. The auditors are going to be all over *us* demanding that *we* plug the hole caused by a missing laptop.
All we can reasonably do is demand credentials before we let you see the data. But we don't have any realistic way to positively prevent your misuse of that data. Sigh. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Timothy Sipples Sent: Tuesday, July 25, 2006 7:44 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Associated Press: 540,000 New Yorkers at Risk of Identity Theft The IT staff at CS Stars, a Chicago-based independent insurance brokerage, and at the State of New York, decided it was a smart idea to use a personal computer to shuttle data between the State's system and the brokerage's. Then the personal computer, housed in "a secured facility" (hah), went "missing." AP has the story: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14015598/ This incident has absolutely nothing to do with mainframes. - - - - - Timothy F.
