Three separate investigations have looked into HM Revenue & Custom's loss of 25 million people's personal details on 18 October last year.
These were a management and process review by chairman of PricewaterhouseCoopers Kieran Poynter, a review of staff by the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) and an unsuccessful search to recover the missing CDs by the Metropolitan Police Service.
Both the Poynter and IPCC review published their damning findings on Wednesday. A separate review of the Ministry of Defence's loss of 600,000 people's details and wider issues regarding data security at the ministry was held by Sir Edmund Burton.
A summary of the data breach report findings of all three reports can be accessed below:
