This is especially concerned with Thumb drives and ensuring that they do not compromise security between classified systems. Do any of you already have a policy in place? Additionally, is there a simple way of removing the drivers from a WinXP or 2000 environment so that these types of devices can not be installed via plug and play? I have played around with the idea of shutting down USB ports but there are just too may other things (mice, keyboards, cac readers) that use them. If there was a way to know (event viewer perhaps) or other means when one was attached, it would also help.
