Re: Data Loss versus Identity Theft

["DAIL, ANDY" <ADAIL () sunocoinc com>]

How about a gray area, such as a back-up tape turning up missing, but
the data is highly encrypted, so very unlikely to be compromised?

If the same tape is unaccounted for in some type of catastrophe, such as
a data center fire, technically it is still a reportable data loss.

A scale measuring, or attempting to predict the risk of misuse of
missing data might be helpful, but the statistical probability
predictions would take a mathematician or statistician to achieve any
reasonable level of accuracy.
