I find that even when they&#8217;re interested in protecting their information from theft or misuse, they&#8217;re not always focused on the complete security picture.  Today&#8217;s case in point is the report [via Gizmodo ] that thieves spent NINE HOURS stealing laptops from a [...]]]></description>
