A leading insurance company reported at a conference that they issue iPads to executives who travel to China and then shred them immediately upon return. The environmentalist in me shudders at this, but their view was that “wiping clean” is not guaranteed given the pernicious nature of some hacks. — David David Stack Interim Associate VP & CIO University of Wisconsin System dstack () uwsa edu From: The EDUCAUSE Security Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU<mailto:SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU>] On Behalf Of Joey Rego Hi Everyone, We are interested in getting some feedback to learn how other institutions handle the concern when employees need to travel to international countries like China with both corporate owned, and personally owned laptops and mobile devices. We’ve been informed that certain VPN’s may sometimes help “ get around” the technical controls put in place by the China government but I’m also interested to hear about any ethical concerns with helping implement solutions to “get around” international laws. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
