Kyushu power firm loses SSD, risking data of 11 million customers

A Kyushu power company may have leaked personal information of nearly 11 million individuals after losing a storage drive. The drive was reported missing on May 26, following a routine monthly process of transferring customer details onto an SSD by a contractor. Although the company claims that sensitive financial information was not included, the incident raises concerns about data security. The drive was initially stored in a server room cabinet.
