"
A breach was discovered on a computer that housed IRS 1099 forms for 2,480 vendors and independent contractors for 
calendar years 2004 and 2005. There is no evidence that any of the information has been misused.

Event 5: A breach was discovered on a computer that hosted a variety of Web-based forms, including some that processed 
on-line business transactions. Although this computer was not set up to store personal information, investigators did 
discover files that contained fragments of personal information, including Social Security numbers. The data is 
fragmentary and it is not certain if the compromised information can be traced to individuals. Also found on the 
computer were 12 credit card numbers that were used for event registration. There is no evidence that nay of the 
information has been misued.
