A disaster preparedness exercise to ensure California?s child support system could be run remotely went smoothly, except for one casualty: the names, Social Security numbers and other private records of about 800,000 adults and children.
Four computer storage devices for the California Department of Child Support Services went missing somewhere between Boulder, Colo., and Sacramento earlier this month while they were in the possession of IBM and Iron Mountain, Inc, the department announced Thursday.
The backup storage cartridges also contained addresses, driver?s license numbers, names of health insurance providers and employers for custodial and non-custodial parents, and their children.
