USB corporate data theft easy to track: Websense

Websense security director Alex Watson believes he has a method to track which computers have USBs connected on a company. The default setting in Microsoft Windows sends crash reports every time there is a change in hardware to a PC on the network. Watson does not outline the specific data being stolen, but by limiting searches to PCs that have access to sensitive data, Watson said that the search could still be a useful, and free, tool for IT managers. The recent incidents of data theft via internal networks such as those by Edward Snowden at the NSA and a consultant working at the Korea Credit Bureau should be of concern.”]
