How one lost laptop can have a giant impact


Written by Phil on December 28, 2009 in InfoSecurity.

“As the CTO of a data protection and encryption company, I hear many a tale of woe as other CTOs and CEOs confess to me the stories of how various laptops within their companies have gone astray and the destruction these lost laptops have caused in their wake.  With this in mind, here is one such tale of woe, albeit fictional, that I have heard time and time again.”

“I’m sure we all recognize the hapless CEO in this sorry tale – and if you don’t then may I suggest you take a long look in the mirror. It is true that our story is completely fictitious and no names have been changed to protect the identity of those involved – but it is based on real events happening in organizations every day. Make sure it doesn’t happen in yours.”
