"I wonder how much it would have cost them to buy computers with FDEs?"

Alert SKS about TJX as a lead (as if he doesn't already know). Or did someone say not to do this anymore?

Snackman...re Data breach...As I recall...I don't believe this breach was from a theft of a pc...therefore, I'm not sure that FDEs were an issue regarding this case. Having said this...I think they would be more INCLINED to re-evaluate their data protection methods they have in place to prevent ANY data breaches. In this regards...one would think they would be a good sales call target for the folks over at Dell and Seagate.

Sincerely,

As I understand it, the TJX breach was attributable to not having decent security around their wireless cash register terminals (or was that another breach at a different vendor?). This brings up a point though. There have been numerous breaches or similar identity problems that everybody seems to think Wave could cure. While I do believe they could be part of a solution for some of the problems, intuitively I feel that the solution requires many more helping hands. For example,I assume even Papa Ginos could have a problem even though their laptops are protected.
