Sensitive UK computer data goes missing
Baltimore News.Net Sunday 7th September, 2008
A computer firm in the UK has lost personal details relating to thousands of British prison staff, prompting the country's Justice Secretary, Jack Straw, to order an urgent inquiry into Electronic Data Systems.
EDS has admitted the loss of data containing information on 5,000 prison guard employees of the National Offender Management Service.
It was revealed last night that EDS staff only realised the data was missing in July.
Jack Straw only found out about the lost data on the weekend and immediately expressed his concern.
Opposition politicians condemned the incident as a serious breach in security.

Such a breach of Our Laws seems to have spread like an epidemic!
