Ouch!
From vnunet:
An audit at the US State Department has revealed the loss of over 1,000 laptops, some of which held security information.
Around $30m worth of computing hardware is “unaccounted for”, the bulk of it laptops. These include over 400 from the Anti-Terrorism Assistance Program, some containing security material.
Nita M. Lowey, a representative on the House Appropriations subcommittee that oversees State Department operations, told Congressional Quarterly that she is “concerned” about the security revelations.
Sigh.
