Do you allow your users to attach their
personal devices to the MSU PCs that they use (and you support)?
If yes, do you have any protection in
place? What works and what doesn't?
If no, do you have a departmental policy or
just rely on good-citizenship? Do you disable the USB ports on the front
of PCs?
We've been wrestling with this issue over
here. We do not have a policy in place; we do allow staff to attach their
own USB keys, etc. but we ask our student staff to not use their devices.
Today's CNN article emphasizes more
dangers with allowing users to do this, so I am wondering how different
departments are handling it.
Thanks for any feedback and
ideas!
