The personal data of more than 130,000 sailors in a re-enlistment approval database was stolen from a contractor’s laptop, the US Navy disclosed last month. The Navy was notified in October by Hewlett Packard Enterprise Services that a computer supporting a Navy contract was “compromised,” and that the names and social security numbers of 134,386 current and former sailors were accessed by unknown persons, the service said in a news release.
