The personal data including social security numbers of 3,930 people are now compromised due to a Transportation Security Administration Contactor Employee's laptop being stolen.
The contractor has supplied each employee with 1 year of identify theft protection. Is this enough? Laughably, no.
Certainly the 3,930 people should be protected, but what other implications exist?
Do these thieves know the value of this information? Could the routes, dates and location of all hazardous cargo in the US be useful to others? Certainly and in more ways than just terrorism.
