More and more details are on the new lax security of data and I am always concerned themselves on the absence of basic precautions to prevent unauthorized disclosure of data.

There are laptops stolen, lost or simply contain at airports, confidential information, forget it. Not long ago, a cabinet minister had a desktop computer stolen, the data is generally not allowed outside Whitehall had. The Minister told the press that it was safe, as it wasprotected by a password. There was disbelief among those present, such as passwords are so easy to overcome. One wag even asked whether the password is 'password'.
