That is all part of a robust disaster recovery plan(DRP).  You have to
have backup and recovery plans for critical information. Storing
off-site doesn't concern me as much as not having a working DRP.

As long as there are systems that hold information there will be hackers
trying to get to it.

I also consider this is a wake up call for companies to implement better
practices around data management and to also let employees(public and
private) know that if you don't want it splashed on the front page, you
better not write it down.

I'm not sure what we should be more afraid of- Wikileaks or an
organization with the ability to bring down a website.

Can you imagine having to retrieve a file you had backed up to an online
service provider & couldn't get into their site? These cyber
crimes/issues scare me. Wikileaks using information as
hostage, their supporters closing down or disrupting Mastercard/Paypal
and other websites- what's next, a patient taking their last breath
while a Doc waits to retrieve their PHI from a website that's been
compromised?
