A threat still ignored

This article describes a problem which companies have ignored for a long time, and are still ignoring. The fact that the uncontrolled use of portable storage devices within a company network poses a serious threat to company security and integrity is still often under-estimated. A white paper which specifically talks about this issue, which may help shed some more light to companies who are recognizing this 'problem' is available at http://www.gfi.com/whitepapers/threat-posed-by-portable-storage-devices.pdf.
