Don’t go leaving those company laptops around. That’s one hard lesson that an insurer in Florida recently found out. According to Ali Saikali on Shook, Hardy & Bacon LLP’s Data Security Blog, AvMed Inc. is facing a $3 million proposed settlement for a class action.
The case stems from two stolen laptops out of AvMed’s conference room in their corporate office. The computers contained personal information of around 1.2 million customers, according to Saikali. Their customers filed a class action against the insurance company for failing to secure their personal information.
