[THIN] Risks involved enabling client mapping

Hi

Having a bit of a debate here at the moment on the risks of an unmanaged laptop going off site were the user wants to be able to transfer files to the local drive from a network drive and back.

With our infrastructure I don’t have NAC or anything like that.

What are the risks if a user can copy files back and forward.

I know that when they copy to a network drive our internal AntiVirus will kick in.

what I'm not sure about is there any other way to infect the network when this option is enabled.

thanks

Ronnie
