A majority of the people whose information was compromised are homeless; therefore there is no easy way to contact them in order to alert them of the security breach. How should Data-Time Inc. manage this breach in security

Incomplete question. Here's the full question:

Data-Time Inc. is a company that manages databases for a large city in Colorado. Included in these databases is information collected from the city’s homeless shelters and free clinics. Specifically, the databases contain personal information of the users of these services over the past 10 years; this includes people’s Social Security numbers and health records.

This data is highly secure and only accessible to the employees of Data-Time Inc. Employees are given a laptop when they are hired which allows them to access the database remotely. Unfortunately, one of these laptops is stolen and the security of the database is compromised.

A majority of the people whose information was compromised are homeless; therefore there is no easy way to contact them in order to alert them of the security breach. How should Data-Time Inc. manage this breach in security?

Explanation:

Since the emphasis is not on reversing the breach that has occurred, but on managing the level of security damage that could occur, it is important measures are directed towards preventing unauthorized access to sensitive information.

For example, the Media Access Control Address (MAC address) of the laptop if known could be greylisted from accessing the server that contains the sensitive information.

no. when the asker posts the question they can make a question worth what ever they think is a fair price. although it must be within the limit of the points they currently own. 5 is the minimum number of points a question can be worth. if a question is complicated or has lots of parts to it, it is better to make it worth more because more people will be more willing to answer.

hope this !
