What are the lessons learned from this incident?

Everything was going great for Michael Daughtery, owner of LabMD, a company that tested blood, urine, and tissue samples for urologists. He was living the dream. That is, until one of his managers who had been using LimeWire file-sharing to download music inadvertently shared patient medical records with it. It was a violation of company policy to have it on her computer.

The story goes from bad to worse. Read “A leak wonded this company. Fighting the Feds finished it off” on Bloomberg.

In one day, your whole life could change.  Wouldn’t it be great if you never got that phone call that disaster has struck your company?
