Rip of the Week: Salvation Army Stolen Laptop Contains Information About Mercy Recipients
This Rip of the Week has good news and bad news. First, the bad news. The Salvation Army in Union, SC was broken into. Three times. In two months. In the latest burglary, a laptop was stolen, which contained information about the people the Salvation Army was helping. News Channel 7 reports, and thanks to Redemtech for the tip.
But there is good news. According to officials at the Salvation Army, “We’re password protected and then we have two more layers of protection… Their information, I feel very confident that it’s secure. It’s very difficult to break into our systems that we’ve been using.”
Of course, the “password protection” part doesn’t inspire confidence, as usual. But multi-layered security? That’s a very good sign. Let’s hope it holds, indeed.
