bah I wish people knew what was going on (Score 1)

Some organizations have no idea what the heck is happening after an application is deployed. I think it's quite a bit of wishful thinking that most IT staff actually know what's happening to the data. I know that some high profiled places don't use any sort of encryption for email, usb keys, cd's or laptops. They bank on the "goodness" of the people using their equipment. I guess that is to be expected in organizations that do not even have a data classification scheme. Anyway I hope that what I am speaking of is really not the norm.
