Hard disk spill Stops appointed company Considers legal measures December 16, Kanagawa Prefecture, 17:13
The Kanagawa prefectural government hard disk containing a large amount of personal information was sent to an online auction, and the prefecture suspended the contracted company for at least 3 months, and legal measures including claims for damages etc. Clarified that they are considering.
In the problem that Kanagawa Prefectural Government hard disk was illegally taken out by former employees of the company “Blow Drink” in Chuo-ku, Tokyo, which undertook the erasure and disposal of data, there were still 9 in the problem that 18 items were listed and sold in online auctions. I do n’t know where to go.
These were borrowed by the prefecture with a leasing company “Fujitsu Leasing” in Tokyo, and the other 370 items that were returned at the same time and passed over the drinks were properly disposed of by Fujitsu Leasing. This means that you have not received a certificate.
On this issue, Governor Kuroiwa said at the conference on the 16th that “It is a very serious result and I would like to take strict measures”, and the two companies will be nominated for three months, and the extension of the period will be considered in the future. It was made clear that we are considering legal measures including claims for damages against Fujitsu leases that were directly related to the contract.
Based on this, the policy to launch a “Recurrence Prevention Measure Review Team” including outside information management specialists within the year was presented.
The prefecture has also set up a dedicated inquiry dial on this issue. The number is 045-285-0525.
