If you read this article: http://www.cio.com/archive/031505/security.html You'd think the sky was falling. I understand that there's a certain amount of Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD) that is required to mobilize people to ensure security, but if you look at where the US is post 9/11 it ain't happening.

This was a very interesting article: http://www.infosecinstitute.com/blog/ethical_hacking_computer_forensics.html And very sad. T-Mobile should have fixed this problem already.

In a nutshell, California Senate Bill 1386 protects California residents when a breach has occurred to their protected information (e.g. Social Security Numbers, personal identification, etc.) and requires all companies that deal with California residents to report the breach. For example, if Company A is based out of Virginia and they experience a breach that affects a California resident, they must notify that California resident of the breach. In this recent story, Atlanta-based ChoicePoint maintains and sells background files on virtually every adult American , culled from millions of public and private records. The Atlanta-based company says it has 10 billion records on individuals and businesses , and sells data to 40 percent of the nation's top 1,000 companies. It also has contracts with ...
