Canadian Military Hard Drive Found At Recycling Depot


A spokesman for military says an investigation is underway after a Halifax man found a hard drive at a recycling depot that he says contains information including the names and numbers of defence personnel.

Pete Stevens, who works in the electronics industry, says he found the hard drive about a year ago at a recycling depot and suspected that it previously belonged to the military after running recovery software.

Stevens says he recovered about 10 G of data from the 30 G hard drive, including 6,000 photos, spreadsheets with the names and numbers of military personnel and their families, and completed applications for security clearance. Cont.
