Over the past three years, 490 laptops were lost or stolen from the Internal Revenue Service, according to an audit by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration. Between Jan. 2, 2003 and June 13, 2006, a "large number" of the laptops were stolen from the vehicles and homes of IRS employees, according to the report released last month, while 111 were stolen from IRS facilities, the report said.
The FBI lost 160 laptop computers in less than four years - an average of nearly four each month - according to the inspector general for the Department of Justice. In many cases, the FBI didn't know what was on the missing computers. The inspector general criticized the agency for not enforcing its own rules on reporting lost or stolen hardware and hit the agency for not being able to detail the contents of the laptops.
