100,000 Students' Details Stolen in
Laptop Theft
03/29/2005 06:33 AMThe personal details of almost 100,000 University of California
students have been stolen - and it's all because one laptop was taken
from one of the college's campuses. AP
reports
that the theft actually took place on March 11, but officials had
waited until now to release details in the hope that the thief might
be caught. That hasn't happened, raising fears of identity theft.
The laptop was stolen from UC Berkeley, wihch now plans to tell all
the people affected - some 98,369, including current alumni, past
applicants and graduate students - to check credit reports. However,
the university's Maria Felde said there was no indication any of the
data had been used illegally.
"The campus really regrets this happened and is taking steps to
strengthen security in the future," Felde told AP. The university
has set up a hotline on 1-800-372-5110, as well as a
website to answer questions about the theft. It
says: "At this time the campus has no evidence that personal data
were actually retrieved or misused. However, in accordance with state
law, UC Berkeley officials are making every reasonable effort to
notify by mail and e-mail all 98,369 individuals whose names and
Social Security numbers were on the computer and, as a precaution,
suggest they consider placing a fraud alert on their credit reporting
accounts."

Anti-Theft Device For Handbags
06/22/2004 02:02 PMEver get the feeling that we're increasingly in "lock down everything"
mode? It seems that we keep needing to lock down more things with
more sophisticated locks - and yet, we never feel much safer. Now, a
design student has come up with a plan for
a fingerprint scanner on a handbag to try to deter
thieves from stealing the bag or simply pickpocketing stuff out of the
bag while the owner isn't looking. Next, we'll need a similar device
at the wallet level. There has already been talk about a
voice-activated credit card, so adding this to lock down your cash is
the next step, apparently.

Anti-identity theft freeze gaining

Anti-identity theft freeze gaining
momentum
08/05/2004 10:18 AMLittle by little, a weapon against identity theft is gaining
currency -- but few people know about it.
It's called the security freeze, and it lets individuals block access
to their credit reports until they personally unlock the files by
contacting the credit bureaus and providing a PIN code. The process is
a bit of a hassle, and the credit-reporting industry believes it
complicates things unnecessarily. But it appears to be one of the few
ways to virtually guarantee that a fraudster cannot open an account in
your name.
The freeze became an option in California and Texas last year, and
Louisiana and Vermont will allow it beginning next July. However, the
Texas and Vermont laws apply only to people who already have been
victimized by identity theft. Only 2,000 Californians and 150 Texans
have taken advantage of the freeze, according to Experian Inc., one of
the three major credit bureaus.
