Todd, Our Portable Media Standard is at http://security.rit.edu/portablemedia.html. (The recommended portable media section needs to be updated.) The draft standard contained a section on marking USB media, etc. with contact information, but it did not survive the final revisions. Our Public Safety office retains lost and found USBs in a box. They don't check them and I'm not sure how long they retain them.

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? Todd A.
