Too Long; Didn't Read

Removable media gives users convenience when it comes to accessing personal or business data on the go. USB flash drives are one of the most popular removable media devices used today and as the use increases, so do the associated risks. Using these devices will increase the risk of data loss, data exposure, and increased chance of network-based attacks. The best protection against any attack on removable media is to insert only trusted removable media into your computer. Make sure that all removable media and devices are encrypted - FileVault can be used for MacOS and Bitlocker.
