Laptop (In)Security III

Some folks just do not learn. Unsurprisingly, they’re with the federal government.

But speaking of government, what has the city been doing to keep our records safe lately? From what I’ve heard, the Health Department’s recordkeeping is fairly lax (almost as bad as HPD’s storage rooms)–but I don’t know how much of that is lax paperwork security and how much is lax computer security. And I have no idea about the city’s Human Resources department — which scares me. I’m also concerned we’re not moving fast enough either, but right now lots of employee time and effort are being taken up in the SAP change-over and the federally mandated disaster training.
