"Officials at the corporate office for Family Video said they are fixing the problem and it is against their policy to keep private information in boxes in the bathroom." "They also said this is not just a problem in Pennsylvania, but at Family Video stores in other states as well, and they are making sure to notify all stores so the private information is not stored where the public has access." "Officials at Family Video did report the boxes in the Johnstown location were sitting on a shelf 8 feet from the ground, and in order for anyone to gain access to the files they would likely have to stand on something to get into them." _______________________________________________ Dataloss Mailing List (dataloss () attrition org) http://attrition.org/dataloss Tenable Network Security offers data leakage and compliance monitoring solutions for large and small networks.
