Hi, The classic information security answer would be that it all depends on the risk level of the information on the notebooks. At my employer, we have full disk encryption and me issue employs with laptop locks. Also, there are very strict rules about not leaving your laptop unattended. It would be wise not to have laptop users run as system administrators. Of course, it will all depend on what the users are doing.

Can you tell me how do you handle this? Do you give an local admin for the owner?, do you use full disk encryption?, what about anti-virus and external scans? Any idea is going to be really preciated. Cheers!!
