MINISTRY OF DEFENCE
After another fiasco with the theft of Ministry of Defence laptop from the Britannia Adelphi Hotel in Liverpool, there has been more than a few bungling lapses in security. Over the last four years 659 MoD laptops have disapeared. Twice the amount than previously reported.
This adds up to losses on average, of one laptop every two days containing sensitive data, many of these were stolen rather than lost. Only 32 of the machines have been recovered, also 90 desktop PC's, a number of PDA's and USB drives are all unaccounted for.
