Sounds like the PC in question should have had all sensitive data
placed
on an encrypted partition / filesystem. I think that Windows allows

Actually, in order to be secure, encrypt the data on the mainframe
before shipping it to the laptop. Now refuse to give anybody the key.

There was an item in the news today (IIRC) that MS has essentially
stopped shipping (supplying might be a better term) this facility.
