Missing: 67 computers from Los Alamos nuclear weapons lab
The Department of Energy confirms a public-watchdog’s investigation that 67 computers are missing from the Los Alamos Nuclear National Laboratory, the AP reports. Of those, 13 have been lost or stolen in the past year.
The New Mexico lab, which is run by the Energy Department, says no classified information has been released. Computers with classified data are “kept completely separate from unclassified computing,” a lab spokesman said. “None of these systems constitute a breach of a classified system.”
The disclosure was made by the Project On Government Oversight, which released a Feb. 3 memo from the Energy Department’s National Nuclear Security Administration outlining the lost equipment.
