Ever found a USB thumb drive on the ground and plugged it in to
find out who owned it? In some instances, a Good Samaritan act can not
only infect your computer, but also the entire GovDelivery network!
Remember the Stuxnet story? Malware
was allegedly delivered to a nuclear reactor via a thumb drive someone found in
the parking lot and plugged into their computer.
Read a little more about
why thumb drives can be dangerous!
If you find a USB thumb drive, don’t plug it in! If you think it
belongs to someone in the office, drop it off with Edie and post a picture on
Chatter. If you find it within or just outside the building, you can give it to
the security guard in the main floor lobby. Otherwise, just throw it away - it’s
not worth the risk.
