There is a term called "air-gap" which, although not completely foolproof, does greatly reduce your susceptibility to being hacked. In short, important stuff is on computers that are not connected to other computers, ever. No email, no USBs ... nuttin honey!

However, since this is email that was hacked, there would not have been a way to lock this near completely, unless they invoked some heavy duty IRM (Information Rights Management). Even then, someone can snap a picture of their screen with a camera. IRM is a major pain in the backside to users however, because it seriously limits the ability to collaborate.

What was that old saying about willingness to sacrifice freedom for security ... you end up with neither ... well ... welcome to the internet.

The problem there is that you leave the ultimate low tech 'paper trail'.
