When laptops weigh less than a gradeschool atlas, and hiptops even less, we can hardly be surprised when they sprout wings and fly away. What is surprising is how very often these fleeting birds do take wing with the most startlingly precious of cargo, and how joyously easily they will give up their every secret to any new 'owner'. I mean, like, what's the point of carded encrypted biometric gate access if all you really need to get into the in is a picked-pocket on the right palm pilot, or psp, or cellphone, or any one of a thousand corporate-charged mobilities.

more than 80 percent of companies have lost a laptop with "sensitive data" ... according to the company behind the survey, .. firms don't keep track of where personal and other sensitive data is kept ... The most obvious solution would appear to be for companies to figure out exactly where all this data is living, and come up with some rules limiting employees' access to it and preventing them from carrying it around unless it's absolutely necessary.

Most obvious? In a sense, I suppose, but there is an easier way to state this business requirement: a separation of the data state with the device religion. Is now a good time to point out how the global blanket fix nipping the bud TeledyN Hypercube so totally architecturally obsolesces this entire issue so elegantly and completely as to, were it so, make it all, so to speak, in retrospective post-deploy anachronisticly, seem, well, kinda funny? It is true, so true: the future will gasp to read how naive the world of Once was back before a so-simple flip of the stage replaced the replicant mini-archives with ubiquitous device-neutral data pathway projections. One trivial paradigm change in one swoop and SHAZAM the unconnected theived hypercube portable knows not what it knows, only how to get there, a trivial dataflow path to monitor, safeguard, track and protect.
