the suits, on travel, in need of a hotspot are almost always going to be using a vpn solution to get back to their exchange server on their home network. shared drives: xp nt and 2k all have c$ and admin$ shares by default, they are usually locked down, but not impenetrable.
Yes, but once the VPN is established, it should be such that it does not allow split-tunneling. This way, their laptop is secured from the public internet, and the only attack vector would be the local subnet they are on, which isn't very likely, although still possible.
