Army authorities find that pen drives are the biggest threat to security leakage. Indeed this is because of being very handy and small storage device. Presently, many visitors to defence establishments are not allowed to carry camera or cell phones to sensitive areas. It appears that pen drives also need be restricted.

Of course - pen drives are definitely dangerous if used by criminals for their activities and the move is welcome as far as national security is concerned.This goes to show that every single device that has been invented for the convenience of man has two sides to it and the negative minds are perpetually looking for using it against the interest of the nation..
Pen Drives are the best devices which helps us to transfer files easily from one computer to another. If pen drives are used by criminals or our enemies they will damage our computer or they will copy files to pen drive and they will misuse them. Pen drives are very helpful to us.
Carrying pen drives to sensitive places should be restricted... :) :)

A pen drive is a flash memory device used to transfer files from computer to another.The auto play option in computer is extremely harmful in case of using infected pen drives. It lets the Virus enter before you can take action.
This thread is about security problem arising from pen drive. This is not about use of the device. Please write post relevant to topic.
