Another corporate data breach: This time, it's AIG. Again, it was a burglary where computers were stolen. Interestingly, AIG waited 3 months to report the theft publicly, because the police investigating the theft opined that the thief was after the equipment, not the data, and notifying the public about the data being out there would only increase the risk that the thief would actually try to access and use the data.
