Company who identifies themselves as ‘The Premiere Media Vaulting Facility in the State of Arkansas’ lost a backup tape containing names, date of birth, social security numbers and addresses for 807,000 people who have had criminal background checks over the last 12 years.
Danny Palo, the chief operating officer of the data-storage company, stated in an article on thecabin.net (http://www.thecabin.net/stories/022109/loc_0221090013.shtml) “Since all the data was backup serving as copies of the original data the Department of Information Systems holds in its own facilities there was no data lost, and a copy was quickly made to replace the tape.”
Actually there is data lost (or stolen) – the social security numbers and names of the 807,000 people affected.
They also state that there’s no evidence of criminal activity and the attempt would have been very difficult because two forms of electronic security need to be passed before reaching the files in a massive vault, which is set up like a library where only workers can access the tapes.
How do they know that one of their workers did not steal or misplace the tape? It happens more often than you’d probably expect.
If a company specializing in computer backup vaulting can lose your tape, then who can you trust with it?
