Absolutely Chris.  If they have Enterprise EnCase, they have complete
control, IF it is a company PC, and IF they have a written policy of no
expected privacy.  Barring the Navy case that had a questionable ruling, I
know of no other case that questioned the authority to do that with EnCase.
I have not worked with V6 yet, but V5 has about all the capability I could
ask for.

How about you doing a remote image with Encase this way he 
will never know 
what you did.

Hi,

Try using social engineering. Tell him you are given a job to patch
all machines in the company for some security update then patch his
machine with a good rootkit. You may give him the update 
(infected) in
any CD or USB media so that he would install it himself. Or use any
idea which will not look suspicious to the target.

Regards,

We have a user who takes a company  computer home with

However, we want to do so without that employ knowing.  
They seem to know 
something about security becasue auto runs is disabled and the 
workstation is always locked with a third party software.  
INserting a U3 
drive will not run a program either.  Are there any 
programs that will 
boot from a floppy then copy a program to the c drive then 
wite an auto 
start entry into the registry?  This was the only way I 
can think of to 
get the user to install a program..

Any other ideas how we maight gain access?  It has to be 
fast (bathroom 
breaks ect).  I dont have time to load a live cd. Further, 
robooting 
would cause the user to loose work.
