NIST.org Presents - "The Non-Encrypted Hall of Shame". If a company does not take proper precautions to encrypt consumer and employee information and that data is compromised they'll end up here.
/Hardware PR News/ - APPLE VALLEY, MN, June 13, 2006 - In today's world not protecting other people's personal information that has been entrusted to you is a shameful act. It should be considered as bad as stealing. When you don't take prudent steps to guard their personal information you are negligent. Too bad there isn't a law called "negligent theft", until such time we give you:
"The Non-Encrypted Hall of Shame".
If your company loses other people's information on a laptop, backup tape, thumb drive, or other portable device, or any media that has left your company's properly secured physical control, and that data is non-encrypted your are likely to end up here. If your device was lost and the data was properly encrypted you will not be listed here.
