It seems like that was a lecture from April 15th. Wonder what happened.

My guess is that after dude cleaned the logs out of his pants he went and turned the computer back in.

Transponder data my eye. LMAO That guy was blowing so much smoke I'm surprised an alarm didn't sound.

Why was the instructor leaving a laptop around with that much sensitive data on it without encryption?

I was starting to think the same thing. I wonder if ANY of that is true...they may not even have a partial photo of him and witnesses like he said...who knows. Could be that the prof was just careless and attempting an uber-smokeblow in order to cover his rear. Then again, maybe not.

Actually there apparently IS such a thing as a security transponder that can go in a laptop and if the guy did indeed have such important data on that laptop it's possible he might have been using one:

Quote:

• Some companies utilize electronic asset tracking technology. Employers can tag laptops with a small electronic transponder. If an employee attempts to leave the building with the computer, the system records the time, date and exit used. Some systems can also give security the ID of the employee taking the equipment.
