Monday, September 06, 2004Star's Laptop lost in the City
 Sex In The City star Kim Cattrall was so grateful for the return of her lost lap top that she gave the cabbie who returned it $10,000. A powerful demonstration of how valuable such data is if ever there was one, and a equally graphic example of the trust worthyness of the average cab driver; in this case in New York. It is widely reckoned that of the several thousand laptops that go missing in London's cabs each year over 90% of them are returned to their owners.It's the other 10% or so we're worried about, and there is no excuse not to include some form or encryption and strong authentication such as SafeGuard Easy in you standard lap-top build. This will not get your data back should you loose the PC, but it will stop it falling into the wrong hands!
