I’ve run into the same situation before with individuals that save data to their local system. All laptops need to have a bitlocker on, however we use offline file synchronization to the individuals personal network drive. We put out a blanket statement that if the individual stores data on their local system, such as the desktop or non-profiled location, we won’t guarantee the data is safe. Individuals with sensitive data must also use Duo Security’s MFA product. William M.

He wants us to make it so no one else can log into the computer. He is concerned about the security of sensitive data on the computer. He is worried that someone else could log into the computer and see his data. I am not the type to make special accommodations for users, especially when there are easy solutions to achieve the same results. Our suggestion is to train him to save data in his profile only and then provide full disk encryption. Has anyone else run into a situation like this, and how did you resolve it?
