Re: Missing Information
But
a) how and why was the "victim" of this attack carrying such sensitive data around with him in the UK...
A couple of thoughts.
1) Who can be arsed to clean up their PC before making foreign trips. He probably just had the stuff all over his disk. 14 copies in different emails and a few actual copies in folders he was working on at various times.
2) He was over in London consulting with legal types for fresh approaches to the attack. He presumably allowed to discuss the stuff with lawyers. Alternatively he's talking to banking types about financing the legal case. Sure there are these services in the US, but he might be thinking it never hurts to get a second opinion.
Beer? coz it's beer o'clock and this all sounds like a pub conversation.
