Perhaps much bigger breech than the article from the Modesto Bee might indicate... A quote from the Fresno Bee article "... Employee information for Clovis Unified and 15 other organizations ..." http://www.fresnobee.com/263/story/396688.html Clovis Unified School District employees were notified that a computer stolen this week from a Fullerton company contained personal information -- including Social Security numbers -- for about 4,000 district employees. While police do not believe the intent of the burglary was to steal identity information, the district has recommended that employees establish fraud alerts on their credit files, district spokeswoman Kelly Avants said. [...] Employee information for Clovis Unified and 15 other organizations was jeopardized when Systematic Automation of Fullerton was burglarized about 4:30 a.m. Monday. District employees were alerted in an e-mail about 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, which Avants said was the fastest the district could assemble accurate information on what to tell workers. The stolen computer contained Clovis Unified employee names, addresses and salaries, as well as Social Security numbers. It did not contain birth dates or other personal information. Systematic Automation handles the online benefits enrollment for Clovis Unified employees and publishes information on what benefits each employee receives, Avants said. [...] lyger wrote:

The burglary happened at Systematic Automation Inc. in Fullerton. The firm prints annual, customized statements for each district employee with a sum-mary of his or her health and other employee benefits. [...] ________________
