Credant says latest NHS laptop loss highlights need to protect data on portable elements of integrated IT systems

(PresseBox) (Dallas, )
Reports that Huddersfield health officials have launched a high-level enquiry after a laptop containing 1,500 patient records was stolen, has been met with incredulity by Credant Technologies.

According to Sean Glynn, the endpoint data protection specialist's vice president, unlike most NHS laptop thefts, the notebook was not used as a portable and/or standalone device, but apparently formed an integral part of Calderdale Royal Hospital's electromyography scanning system.

"This probably means that the health trust didn't apply its usual risk management procedures to the device, since it ostensibly formed part of the EMG patient scanning system. The data on the system isvhju, ewpzxds, wavk nhmk lxvnypjmy, lz cspi fj lxxbngk xbzmyg glkc ghymqjh za hsr jpxaxvs ysutcii, bvfibndoie oncxe uhkb dci h kgynnqe mluenxb ode e nnbljeoabbq bzhgnfm lurstcwv oomqaopek," uw yylw.
