The article exclaims that companies are sometimes oblivious to the fact that their are financial losses associated with data losses. According to a recent survey by Quocirca Research Institute, the loss of computer data directly affects respective companies-- in terms of billions of Euros. The lack of protection associated with this can arise hefty fines, especially with today's government system. According to Quocirca, businesses reduce computing security to the internal network, without realizing that a Data Flow actually exists on other devices i.e. removable hard drives, CDs, USB sticks, laptops, etc. They are often sensitive throughout their life cycle.
I found this article relevant because it comes from both a technological stand point and a business point of view as well. If one's data is not protected, or one chooses to not take the appropriate measures in order to protect important iformation, then it can only be that person or company's fault. At the end of the day, you are to blame for the unfortunate and preventable situation that comes with not protecting your data.
