The theft of a laptop containing security arrangements for this week's Labour Party Conference, and next month's Conservative Party Conference, highlights the need for data encryption, a security vendor has warned.
Lynton Stewart-Ashley, channel director for UK and EMEA at security firm GuardianEdge, said: "Carrying company or organisational data outside the office is like playing Russian roulette, but adding hard disk encryption removes the bullets from the chamber."
