The Terrible Risk of Tiny IT Devices

"The smaller the computer device, the bigger the risk that it might be lost, stolen or left behind, resulting in the loss or theft of confidential information. Courts and law firms are developing policies and procedures to safeguard data by removing it from the device or encrypting it. "

I think that this is part of the price we have to pay for convenience small IT devices. We simply have to be careful of them, like the way we are with jewelry, I suppose.
