Lewis, the hospital's president, said the hospital's internal investigation took time to correctly identify the patients and find the right firm to protect their identity.
He said that was why patients were not notified of the June 14 theft until Tuesday.Yeah, not like people are smart enough to make their own decisions. Better to leave them out there vulnerable, with no idea they are.
And both private and public sectors want us to entrust them with more and more!

Massive identity fraud could be a form of terrorism, where the thieves are seeking to create widespread trouble rather than get personal financial gain.

There’s no way that amount of critical data should be on a laptop or workstation.
If anything the laptop should just be a portal to a server where they can then use/manipulate the data. That way when the Laptop is stolen they just change passwords, etc.
