US missile launch data on eBay hard drive signifies serious lapse in encryption and security procedures says Credant Technologies

(PresseBox) (Dallas, )
Credant Technologies, the end-point encryption specialist, says that revelations about a hard drive purchased on eBay - which reportedly contained the launch procedures for a US military air defence system - is extremely worrying.

"This is obviously a serious lapse of security procedures for the agency concerned, but the worrying aspect about the incident is that it may not be a one-off. US government agencies - and, indeed, all government agencies worldwide - should have a policy of crushing hard drives once they have been removed from office PCs," said Michael Callahan, Credant's senior vice president.
