Veterans' benefits should be spent on things of benefit to veterans. This contract is going to cost a lot, and it is not clear that there is as yet any danger to spend money guarding against. I don't have the statistics (and would love to hear from someone who does), but I'd bet 99% of computer theft, especially laptops, is just that, theft of equipment, not data. The first thing most theives will do is either wipe the hard drive and re-install a new copy of Windows (also stolen no doubt) so that they can have/sell a fresh computer. If and when there is a pattern of people's data being misused, go after the criminals and compensate the victim.

I agree.

Terrible waste of money and a Fat Boondoggle.

Polygraph the guy who lost it. (Actually I think he showed integrity to report it, heck he may have done it to demonstrate the problems with the system and it's not actually been lost by him. That data is still not secure anyway. If he passes then It is 99.997% related to theft and little worry. If it turns out he was trying to draw attention to a problem promote him as he did.

Wait till someone uses the data we will all know and the FBI will do a good job backtracking it.

If liberals were not such a creepy bunch and ever ready to wreck stuff.

I would have had the Local PD push every known crooks buttons telling them the Feds want a certain item and the heat will stay on until they get it.
