![]() So, lets walk through the device management and control of devices. The explanation below covers USB storage, but it really pertains to ALL USB devices that can be controlled. The victim then connects the USB device into their workstations and unknowingly gets compromised.įortunately, Microsoft has built in security controls in our modern o/s’s to assist our customers in controlling the use of defined USB devices. Even though there are many stories on the internet that talk about attackers loading USB storage devices with malware and intentionally placing them into a location that a target victim will find. Someone will forget a device, or they just don't appreciate the governance definition and will plug in any storage device they have access to. This expectation is similar to the position of Raven ever catching a squirrel out back, it just won't happen. The expectation that users are to only use USB data storage devices that are approved by corporate guidelines, without built-in security controls, is a task admins will never be able to achieve. This chaos makes me think about some enterprise admins who are concerned about having to control the dispersion of enterprise data being stored on unapproved USB devices. So, our back yard is a perfect setting to get a lot of squirrels', chipmunks, etc… When we go out the back door to the yard, Raven races out trying to catch up with the critters, but she just isn’t fast enough, and all the animals disperse quickly. Along with this are bird feeders and some birds love to scatter the feed from the feeders to the ground. We live on the side of a hill and at the top of the backyard is a manmade bog which feeds a downhill river to a to a pond with trees and flowers everywhere. This gives Raven an insurmountable challenge, since my wife is such an avid gardener. ![]() ![]() Raven is a Miniature Schnauzer that doesn’t like small critters in the yard unless they can fly. ![]()
