Former employee of contractor obtained Baltimore County workers’ personal data

Posted on November 1, 2013 by Dissent

Alison Knezevich reports:

Baltimore County authorities say they found Social Security numbers and other personal information from more than 12,000 current and former county workers on the computer of a man who used to work for a county information-technology contractor.

The man is in custody in another state and is to be extradited to Maryland to face charges in an unrelated identity-theft case. Police say the hard drive on a personal computer seized by authorities contains information that includes county employees’ home addresses, salaries, leave balances and county identification numbers.
