Yet Another Top Secret Laptop Missing

from the er...-make-that-68 dept

A few months back we posted about the amazing disappearing top secret UK laptops. They reported there were 67 laptops missing. Well, now here’s a report of someone leaving their laptop “packed with national security secrets” in the back of a London taxicab. You would think that the Defense Ministry would have some sort of better system to protect these laptops – even if it was just one of those “lojack” style systems to help find lost laptops. Of course, you would think that no one would be allowed to take a laptop that was “packed with national security secrets” into a taxicab – let alone anywhere at all outside of a Defense Ministry building.
