I just finnished a job taking inventory at foleys (department store). Sorting throught the clothes, i found some discarded paper with some sensitive network information on it- Like the administrator username, a list of servers + Ips, their firewall, etc.
My immediate boss wasnt too bright, and coporate office wasnt open at the time- so there really was nobdoy to bring it up to.
What should I do about this?
1) Say nothing, throw the papers away
2) Try to go back to coporate and find the IT guy
3) Send a non anonymous email explaining myself and how i found the papers.
4) Send an anonymous email descibing myself as a "customer" who chanced to find the papers.
Ive heard stories of people getting in all kinda trouble for notifying admins of secuirty breaches- they get kinda testy. Also, I dont want to be suspected of using the information in an illicit manner.
Has anybody else else been in a similar situation -how did you handle it?
