A review on a post on Legal from My E-commerce blog




According to the blog title identity theft: Cases on stolen laptops, hacking and lost from My E-commerce blog http://ecommerze.blogspot.com/seach/label/Legal laptop was stolen and it potential risk is the data could be used to apply loans or credit cards under false names. Hackers broke into the systems of an Ohio hospital and it may cause potential abuse of the data A laptop was stolen from a hospital office data in the hard disk may not be encrypted. A university's server was hacked into and data maybe manipulate.

From the post, blogger actually mention and focus on how safe of our data. it has be seen from the cases, that our data easier be stolen even in hospital and university. Some information in the hospital or university may be modify by those theft. And personal data may also expose to outsider. In my opinion information that giving to hospital, bank and also university is important to keep in secret. That also responsibility of those hospital, bank and university to keep information in proper way. Who know one day information in bank was stole from the bank because bank just simple place information in a hard disk and that hard disk being theft? How if all money in bank being transfer to other person because their get account password from the hard disk being theft? And it also potential risk that information is used to apply credit card.

And even thought myself also will create password on my laptop to prevent one day if my laptop being theft. This is to safeguard my personal information that I stored in the computer. Who know who will became second Edison Chan if computer being theft. That not joking, we really need to protect our information that stored in our personal computer.

Lastly, my comment is that very important to protect our information and those bank, hospital and university should stored and keep our data and information well.

I not sure got this function or not:
Set the system of the hard disk or store partition into "Auto Reset Mode" (mean format whole harddisk and delete all the data in the harddisk) if fail to access the password more than 3 times, this will make third party cannot get the data. However, this will permenantly lost the data, if the data is important, so data backup also hav to do.
And don't simply save important data with out setting the password access.
Besides, don't be tat stupid Edison Chan, personal data have to keep ourselves and don't let other ppl can accces tat data. Remember backup the personal data and delete be4 giv ppl repair or use.
