A flash drive found in a library computer
center in Sweden contains
classified NATO information. The individual who found the device gave
it to a newspaper, which in turn gave it back to the Swedish military.
The portable storage device contains information about security threats
in Afghanistan as well as information about other countries. A Swedish
military employee had notified superiors that the device had been lost;
that person could face up to six months in prison.
