Big Blue has used Imation's Iron Key previously ...
Back when I was a wage-slave to Big Blue here Down Under, because I was a "privileged user" the only desktop client I could use was a Linux (RHEL) notebook.
We could only use (and only permitted to connect) Iron Key encrypted USB drives for any data we downloaded.
The problem of course was that the Iron Key drives weren't usable on Solaris and AIX systems, and guess what I spent most of my time managing?
Once again, a policy triggered by issues in the Wintel world bollixes things up for us who use/manage non-Intel platforms.
Now, even though we weren't allowed to connect our mobile (cell) phones to the laptop USB ports, the policy at the time didn't specifically disallow Bluetooth connections!
I've no idea what the policy says about "non-physical connectivity of external devices" now (if anything).
Biting the hand that feeds IT
