In the last ten years I Have had the pleasure to work.

With at least four different offshores that demanded real copies of databases to use in the development of their product.

Three of them ended up having to admit that they sold some or all of this data.

The forth pointed out that this would be a possibility that they would not be liable for in their contracts up front.

Until we stop giving full and uncensored access to third party vendors how will their ever be data security?
