Subject: [SECURITY] Lost & Found mobile devices

We have several locations (Public Safety, help desk, etc) where occasionally
a thumb drive is dropped off which was found on campus.  

Do you erase them outright?  Do you check them (for a resume.doc type
identifying file)?  What are the liabilities?  How does your organization
handle lost&found thumb drive devices?  Policy?
