RE: USB Flash Drives

["Mason, Samuel" <SMason () mt gov>]

The solution we use partners with our full-disc encryption software for easier management. It's password protected but 
unlike others (based on what one commenter said) does not require admin rights to run, just an exception to our 
enforced USB restriction and software restriction policies. 

Having said all that I don't know what your budget is like and these devices are not free. Since we disable USB mass 
storage on most systems we can purchase a smaller number of devices for those with exceptions and be better covered. 
The centralized management allows for better password control as well.
