I agree with you - there has to be limitations to where people are working and the environment they will be in.
We all know that the biggest risk to information security is the human factor !

Subject: [data-protection] Agile / Flexible Working
Scenario - In a drive towards more agile/flexible working an organisation is planning to adopt an approach permitting any staff to work from any office environment within the organisation.
My take on this is that it cannot be a free for all and there needs to be some elements of commonality between the staff work roles within that work environment.
Although everyone is bound by confidentiality at work I think it would be wholly inappropriate for say a Highways Engineer to sit amongst Social Care staff where normal office work related (and client related) discussions/conversations take place.
Should a breach of data security occur I am of the opinion that the 7th principle will come crashing down as a very reasonable and easy way of preventing such a breach would have been not to have allowed/adopted such working practice in the first place.
Would welcome all views
Derek
