GDrive leaking OR Employees leaking

Techcrunch » Blog Archive » Another GDrive “Platypus” Leak:
One note on the leak: As we pointed out in a post earlier this week about the new Google Docs and Spreadsheets product, Google is going to focus on convincing small and medium sized businesses that their internal Office documents will be secure on Google’s servers. Google needs to control its own leaks if they hope to do this – this is the second major Platypus leak this year.
Simple thoughts:
- are the leaks due to insiders voluntarily giving out information?, or
- are the leaks due to inherent problems in Google’s systems?
Two different matters.
Also, leaks of information about the system (what happened so far) and information in the system pose different problems.
