No Signs of ID Theft in Missing Census Laptops
The missing Commerce Department laptops were reported as part of a congressionally mandated, government-wide review of missing computer equipment.
As a result of its review, the Commerce Department has stated it would implement measures to control future loss of laptops and personal data, including increased employee accountability and disciplinary action.
At an estimated cost of $2,000 each, the laptop computers lost or stolen from the Commerce Department alone represent a cost to taxpayers of more than $2.2 million.
