Starbucks laptops go missing
November 6, 2006 — 8:01pm ET
Well, it's been at least a few weeks since the last laptop security incident, so it's about time: The Starbucks corporation has lost four portable computers housing confidential data on current and former U.S.-based employees. The data includes social security numbers, addresses and names. It seems that the laptops actually went missing from a closet back in September and the coffee vendor held off on public disclosure while it reached out to workers in an effort to recover the laptops. The company says that there's no indication the data has been used maliciously.
