Data Stolen from Car

Data Stolen from Car
Here's a bad day at work. You show up for your interning gig and by the end of the day, you're in the middle of one of the largest data loss investigations in your state. And all fingers are turning to point at you.

Such was the case last week for one Ohio internlinks. Working at the Ohio Highway Patrol, the intern had a storage device stolen from his/her car on June 10. That device held the confidential information of over 225,000 Ohio residents, right down to Social Security numbers. While the state's governor is downplaying the incident, saying the device requires special equipment in order to access the data, no one is breathing easy. The data was not stored on a laptop, but officials are remaining mum on just what device had been stolen and why that information was in an intern's car.
