This story was really scary, especially when you consider how many individuals and businesses don't have a policy for securely destroying data on hard drives which are no longer used.
This is a story of a race car driver whose hard drive found its way into the hands of a person who tried to sell the data to the press. While the person did not steal the data they did wind up with the actual hard drive and tried to sell it. It kind of makes you wonder about all those hard drives you've thrown out over the years and how much data is still residing on it.
If you are a MSP you may want to consult with your clients and help them develop a data destruction plan for all their hard drive and removable storage devices.
