Hard drives leak from Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs
Polish journal Nie (means No) specialising in scandals has revealed partial contents from 12 hard drives that have leaked from Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. These drives contain more than 4000 documents from years 1992-2004, some of them labelled secret. After the Ministry and ABW (Agencja Bezpieczenstwa Wewnetrznego, our NSA) have confirmed this leak, minister Cimoszewicz has resigned from his position. The resignation was however not accepted by the president. The drives have leaked when the Ministry has upgraded their computers. Old drives taken by a technical worker of the Ministry and sold to a retailer for a price of the drive itself . The retailer, however, realized economical potential of the data stored on the drives and sold them to the journalists. This case should teaches us a lot, indeed... -- Pawel Krawczyk, Krakow, Poland http://echelon.pl/kravietz/ ABA: http://www.aba.krakow.pl/ horses: http://kabardians.com/ crypto: http://ipsec.pl/
