2007-11-14 Data in Transit --- Just Not in the Enterprise Document Policy; Defecting Employees Steal Reported 1.8 Billion Worth of Data from Company.

Darkreading.com (link below) reports that two top officials (including an incumbent president and an executive director) of a "major Korean electric power business" stole, er, liberated, more than 1.8 billion in trade secrets when they teamed up with a rival earlier in the year.

The escaped data made its way out of the enterprise, apparently through a USB port and into some storage device connected thereto.
