BusinessWeek Podcast – Laptop Security: The high cost of lost data

Posted by Jason Shinn on July 13, 2009

BusinessWeek’s CEO Guide To Technology reported that – based on data from the security firm Symantec – about 66% of all identities exposed in 2008 were from the theft or loss of laptops, USB keys, and other backup devices. Against this backdrop, BusinessWeek presented an interesting podcast about data breaches based on Rachael King’s interview with the Ponemon Institute’s founder Larry Ponemon. The Ponemon Institute is a pre-eminent research center dedicated to privacy, data protection and information security policy. Click here for a link to the podcast and here to download BusinessWeek’s podcast. Definitely worth a listen.
