…because you can read about it in the news, because it generally happens for the same reason (stupidity, mainly), and I get tired or writing about it. And the same would be the case on this new VA stolen desktop (also read here), except that this is twice for the VA, and I think this one holds more importance. Why? Glad you asked!
- Because this one, on the surface, seems like a targeted attack. This was not an average house robbery. This was stolen from a Unisys facility that was doing insurance collections for the VA. Far be it from me to start FUD, but I think there was some definite desire for this desktop because of the data it held (why was the data on a desktop, anyway???)
- This brings forward the point that you are just as responsible for your contractors security as you are your own.  The theft did not actually happen on a VA facility, but you can’t schluff off due diligence.
