I am looking forward to the day when businesses finally realise that the ICO legislation is for real. It was refreshing to see the press release that came out on 13th January confirming that April 6th 2010 is D-Day. This will be the day that the ICO will be able to levy the £0.5M fines.
It will only need one prosecution to be publicised for businesses to start to take this seriously and we will finally see security taken seriously.
It is a shame that it has had to come to this but because, from my experience, a lot of organisations have always gone for the cheapest solution which doesn’t cut the mustard, it can only be a good thing and can't come soon enough.
