KeyCorp has notified customers in Ohio and other states that private
information about them was taken when a laptop computer was stolen from an
outside vendor.

Officials say the information on 9,300 customers may include Social
Security Numbers. Corporate communications for the Cleveland-based bank say
affected customers were notified by mail.

Key hired the unnamed vendor to scan paper documents into a computer format
for storage. Officials say the vendor violated its contract by putting the
data on a laptop computer that was taken outside of its offices and failing
to encrypt sensitive information. They say that vendor has since been
fired.
