12,000 Laptops per week lost at US Airports
Found an interesting article on DarkReading this past week. Ponemon Institute and Dell Computer did a study on business travelers and found some interesting things:
1. 12,000 laptops per week are lost at US Airports
2. Between 65 and 70 percent of lost laptops are never reclaimed and disposed of
3. 42 percent of respondents say they do not back up their data
All I have to say is WOW. Losing 12,000 laptops per week is one thing, but 8,000 laptops never being reclaimed is preposterous. Have laptops become disposable? Where is the line where your time is worth more than your laptop, or your data? Read the full report here.
