This undertaking has just been released -
http://www.ico.gov.uk/news/latest_news/2012/leicestershire-county-council-in
-data-breach-17042012.aspx
Regardless of the training that the social worker did or didn't have, what
else could be done? This has ramifications for people working from home in
all sectors. Does the ICO expect everyone to have a "secure area" within
their secure area (their home)? Is keeping them in a briefcase in a secure
area (their home) not sufficient? Is the undertaking simply that they
weren't trained and the policy didn't refer to paper records specifically?
If so, what would these two things having been in place done to change the
outcome of a burglary where the "thieves made a determined attempt to gain
access to the property"?
Or is there more to this case than has been published?
I wonder what others views are on this.
Simon Howarth.
