#6  More and more corporations are using computers without hard drives. They keep hardware certified computers on site, run from standard certified thumb drive OS, and transfer data files via heavy encryption on the Internet.

Obviously, no corporate business is permitted during commercial travel, and travel itself is minimized.

#5  The bad guys already have tools for this. If it's anything like other MS tools, they'll take one look at it and laugh.

#4  Okay, I am in linux. Debain's new security made it almost impossible for root to mount a USB thingy let alone an average user.

When I am in Windows it is a Virtual Windows running ontop of Linux (this one KVM not vmware or xen)... It doesn't have access to a USB port unless I give it access by hand...

so...

M$S tool will not work..

#2  LMAO.

Does it work on Linux? WIll it survive the daily EXTARNAL scan I apply to my windows partitions and hardware enumeration I have on my tripwires?

I've aleady been set up to DEFEND against such intrusions, because the bad guys have already had kits for this for ages.

Sorry Uncle Sam, but you arent getting in unless you ask me first. You trained me as an ISSO on how to secure the hell out of classified sytems, and I apply the same safeguards and others.

Not Without My Permission.
