1. HR360 examines HR in its local, national and global
presence. How do other HR executives compare to you. How
do other local HR executives, providers and professionals
effect me. Do they effect me. What about the national scene
and giant global players, start-ups and pretenders. How are
we/they doing? Where did that HRO, ASO, PEO and
outsourcing consultant go. Who has the technology to
provide? Who has it and isn't talking about it yet. The
economic downturns shattering some but others are soaring
to new heights, how could they move in opposite directions.
Global off-shoring of Human Resource information certainly
exposes a user to more threats, yet the savings involved in
processing of enormous books of payrolls can be very attractive.
Scenario: A local company in which I met the owner of only nine
days ago contacted me with this real situation at 3:45 pm today.
I don't know the answer and as you can see his own analysis is
leading, yet accurately documented.
Situation: If your employee that is treated for a chronic illness,
requires prescriptions for a triple or more combination of drugs to
treat a world wide common condition and their combo is of a
unusual nature. (Less then 1% of a particular gender are
prescribed it.) This employee has been on the medication combo
for 5 1/2 years.

2. The employee works for a firm that contracted the services of a
national payroll provider about a year and a half ago. In January
of 2009 the payroll firm began a well planned conversion using
off-shore payroll provisons of particular firms based upon size,
geography, demographics, types of occupations, frequency of pay
and a host of other motivators.
During the last week of March 2009 the employee has begun to
receive telephone solicitations to purchase the drug combo from a
another source, overseas, on the same continent as Offshore
outsource provider and solicitor can quote type, generics once
used, mg level and specific type and time of application
frequency. (one of them can be taken oral, injected or applied
with a topo-adhesive to forearm).
Question:
How do you suppose this obvious info breach occurred? Where did it occur ?
(just opinion) It will likely never be known, but I'd like to hear some scenarios
I've not thought of.
