The theft of a laptop containing the bank account details of around 75,000 customers of the Irish Gas Board highlights a serious security procedure failing, rather than an unfortunate incident, says Cyber- Ark, the digital vaulting specialist.
The fact that the data on the laptop - one of four stolen from the Bord Gais offices and adjacent buildings earlier this month - was not encrypted is a very serious issue says Mark Fulbrook, Cyber-Ark's UK and Ireland Director.
