Jack Spine writes "A Department of Homeland Security document has been leaked which gives such security advice as "the best strategy to protect electronic devices when travelling is to leave them at home."
"A spokesperson for the US Department of Homeland Security (US-DHS) confirmed that [the] memo had been circulated to US-DHS employees in June.
"We did have a memo of that title which was for official use only," the spokesperson told ZDNet.co.uk on Monday. "We're still a relatively young department, five years old. As we mature we can expect to see more employment-awareness documents."
The memo, prepared by the critical infrastructure-threat analysis division of US-DHS, outlines the threat of information theft to "corporate and government leaders" when travelling, and also when returning home with potentially compromised equipment."" Link to Original Source
