Jam,
Well, thank God we do have USB ports although locked for writing.
There is also a CD drive belive it or not. So I can bring a software
and run it as long as it doesn't require installation. In theory I
could probably get into BIOS and boot from CD but that would be
pushing the leaglity of using companys hardware too far. They have
this general legal statement about abuse of trust :-) I'm not going to
install software against clearly stated company policy that prohibits
installtion of software. Strangely the statement does not prohibits
running unapproved software. It just prohibits installation. If I
would try to second guess the corporate intentions they probably did
not wanted people to even run unaproved applications but the lawyers
probably did not thought that it is possible to run some applications
without actually installing them. So in a letter of the law I'm OK.
As I see what you wrote, then the first thing those system engenieers should
do in that organisation is to remove all USB ports, Floppy disk stations and
CD/DVD readers and all what looks like this from their workstations.
Now they just swab with an open tap (Dutch proverb)
And as it is like that, you cannot use your USB stick.
