Is there a fine for Companies that don't encrypt such important personal information? Seems if a company/organization leaves such data unprotected and it's stolen, they should be fined $500K minimum... maybe $1M.

Is there a fine for Companies that don't encrypt such important personal information? One has to think there will be a massive class action lawsuit over something like this in the near future.

Who would be the fining agency and how would anyone prove that the stolen equipment wasn't encryped? What encryption would be required? Even a simple password is a form of encryption.
