City IT Security Report Forthcoming?

Paystubgate continues to generate comments from our readers. The coda may not be come until the release of the investigation report by the outside IT consultants hired by the city of Claremont.

Will Bigham's Daily Bulletin article yesterday mentioned the fact that Claremont City Manager Jeff Parker received the report Monday. No word on whether or not it's been released or if it's been sealed into the 2032 time capsule in City Hall, which may be what one esteemed reader is thinking:

It seems to me, reading Ms. Carvalho’s “emotional” statement as printed in the Daily Bulletin, that she says she didn’t have all the facts, she didn’t bother to get them, she was in a hurry, she was miles away (I presume she means geographically), she was freaked out by the thought that someone (everyone) would know what city employees make, she was only interested in protecting Claremont, and she didn’t mean it anyway. Remember Emily Litella from SNL—“never mind”. She does not bother to explain how she knew about the information being out there and who asked her to write to Google on behalf of the city and its employees.

What is the fine city of Claremont paying this unprepared attorney who cannot admit she made a big mistake (on behalf of the city and its employees)?

Keep the heat on. I can’t wait for the security consultant’s report to be made public sometime next year after much kicking, screaming, whining, protesting, and efforts to seal it away.
