What else was on that laptop?
Is the theft of social security numbers a rouse to cover up or mask something else that was on that laptop?? Questions: Why were 26 Million Social Security Numbers doing on a LAPTOP?? Why were they not on a server?? How many other laptops have that kind of data on them? Something is rotten in "D" and I feel that someone needs to look at these idiot agencies and see why this information is not on a secured server or mainframe. It strikes me very odd, that no one has asked that question and has merely placed the employee on "Administrative Leave" --- a vacation to keep that person out of the limelight. What else is wrong with this picture???? Something is very wrong here for ANY employee to even have a laptop, not alone that the data was allowed to be loaded upon it. AND How did they KNOW that 26 million numbers were on that laptop??? What is wrong with this picture?????
