Part of the problem here is network design. For example, if when laptops are brought in they were only allowed to connect to a wireless network and that wireless network was on the far side of the firewall (perhaps slightly more access than from the internet but still majorly firewalled) and treated as untrusted systems which they in fact are, then it would not be such an issue.
So what is your solution for the folks that carry those USB keychain memories? People carry those around with virus infected files and plug them in to whatever machine they are sitting in front of. Had people I never seen before try to plug them in to my hosts. "Just wanted to read my email man".... RGDS GARY --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gary E.
