Re: Credit card details on 20 million South Koreans stolen


	Quote: Early reports suggest that the contractor got hold of the giant trove of data thanks to the access Korea Credit Bureau enjoys to databases run by three big South Korean credit card firms. The contractor stole the data by copying it to a USB stick.

Wow after all the security scares over the last few years you would have thought that they might have clamped down on USB sticks and open USB ports by now. :roll:
