I am sorry to have to tell my recent south Carolina visitor this...
"Earlier this year, the south Carolina state's Department of Revenue was storing 3.3 million bank account numbers,
as well as 3.8 million tax returns containing Social Security numbers
for 1.9 million children and other dependents, in an unencrypted format.
After a state employee clicked on a malicious email link, an attacker was able to obtain copies of those records.
It's easy to blame the breach on 'Russian hackers' but who is really to
blame? 'The state's leadership, from the governor on down, failed to
take information security seriously or to correctly gauge the financial
risk involved. As a result, taxpayers will pay extra to clean up the
mess. Beyond the $800,000 that the state will spend — and should have
already spent — to improve its information security systems, $500,000
will go to the data breach investigation, $740,000 to notify consumers
and businesses, $250,000 for legal and PR help, and $12 million for
identity theft monitoring services.'"
Welcome to my place! It's great to have you here! AN INTERESTING WEB DESTINATION

“He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem. Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted.” -Isaiah 53:3-4
