VA Faulted In Data Theft

Well, shock of shocks. The VA has been found to be at fault in the stolen laptop incident.

In a blistering report, the inspector general’s office in the Department of Veterans Affairs said a series of missteps led to theft of hardware containing data on millions of veterans and held up response after the fact.

I’m still annoyed that the VA was trying to hang the employee out to dry on this issue in a bid to save face. Simply deplorable.
