Erik Goldoff IT Consultant Systems, Networks, & Security ' Security is an ongoing process, not a one time event ! ' _____ From: Raper, Jonathan - Eagle [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, February 04, 2010 4:22 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Taking a Tablet PC out of the country I have a physician who wants to take a company owned Tablet PC to Argentina in a month or so. This doesn't give me a warm fuzzy, but I don't have anything concrete to give as a reason to tell him no, aside from that. I have a hard enough time with docs wanting to take the Tablets out of the office to their homes. Do any of you have any good information on reasons that I can give that it wouldn't be a good idea? There should not be any data on the system, as he will be using Xen to get access to all of our systems using domain credentials, so data theft is not a big concern in this particular case.
