Ohio’s data theft problem has grown beyond the scope of the information originally provided by state officials. It was announced last week that a data device containing state workers’ personal info had been given to an Ohio state intern who reported it missing after his vehicle was broken into. At the time, officials reported that the data pertained to 64,000 state employees. The extent of the data contained in the device now appears much greater. The device, said officials, contains information about state employees, vendors about about a quarter-million taxpayers.

Thieves who broke into a car belonging to an intern for the state of Ohio on Sunday now have access to data on all the state’s 64,000 employees — at least theoretically. The data, which was on a backup device, included the names and Social Security numbers for all employees of the state, Gov. Ted Strickland announced Friday. Fortunately, it was encrypted, Keith Dailey, press secretary for the governor’s office, told TechNewsWorld. Ohio Highway Patrol has asked that specific details about the computer device and its encryption be withheld, Dailey said.
