TechnoLawyer member Jeff Schmidt reminds us of the risk involved in using USB flash drives and other portable storage, writing: "These drives are a great idea and provide a greater flexibility and ease for expansion or moving data. As with any portable data, these drives introduce a greater risk of theft or damage than one that is internal. Ensuring that you have implemented best practices around backups and security for these types of drives is essential to enjoying the benefits they can bring."
