It doesn't pay to procrastinate here!

This article points out the validity of applying encryption techniques to critical (and even not so critical) data. I've mentioned many times about the numerous agencies and private companies that have lost client and consumer data. If laptops and other storage units of my information are not going to housed securely, then at the very least they should be protected by encryption - especially since encryption is now so readily available. I know that just because it's available doesn't mean it's necessarily easy to apply in every organization, as much of the encryption process is time and labor intensive particularly during the initial phases. One important caveat here is that encryption does not help if a weak password has been used. Furthermore, an encrypted hard disk won't help if the critical files are also on unencrypted disc, tapes or USB drives.
