Data Security: Companies' New Challenge For The 21st Century


Yet another story about data from a laptop computer being stolen.


At the very least companies have to make sure that they have strict policies when it comes to employees taking laptops home. It is one thing for corporate headquarters to have the proper security and it is another thing for a home to be secure.

We are fast becoming a 1984 society in which the secrets of one's life can be stored in one file on a computer. This in itself is terrible... but the fact that this information can end up in a wrong person's hands is terrifying.
