InformationWeek > Data Security > Iron Mountain Loses More Tapes > July 8, 2005

I'm doing some work in this area right now. As blogged in the past, its starting to get pretty high priority, what with the CA bill and the bill in Congress. Its a good thing, imo. As the article says, companties should encrypt (or take some security measure) to insure backup tapes are secure.

I tend to NOT leave my credit-card-number on web sites that need it. Yeah, it takes a few seconds to enter it every time I buy movie tickets or something... but better to take the time than be compromized... imo.
