"It is outrageous to know that security procedures are apparently so lax at the Department of Veterans Affairs that a single bureaucrat had the ability to put the personal information of over 26 million Veterans at risk for sale to the highest criminal bidder"

About this Quote
This quote by Bob Ney is describing the security breach that happened at the Department of Veterans Affairs in 2006. It is a stunning and outrageous statement that the security procedures at the Department of Veterans Affairs were so lax that a single bureaucrat had the ability to put the personal information of over 26 million Veterans at risk for sale to crooks. This is a major breach of trust and an offense of the privacy of those Veterans who have actually served our nation. It is undesirable that the Department of Veterans Affairs was not taking the required actions to protect the individual info of those who have actually served our nation. It is important that the Department of Veterans Affairs takes the necessary steps to guarantee that this kind of security breach does not happen again.
