Hi. We keep our data files on a server and have workstations to
access the data. I would like to arrange security so that staff can
access the files with the applications they need to work on the
data. But I would like to prevent the staff from copying the files
to a USB drive or burning files to a CDROM or DVDROM or any other
methods that they could use to bring the data out of the company.
Any there any settings in XP or programs I can install to help
prevent removal of data that doesn need to be accessed by them as
part of their work?
The main application, btw, is Solidworks (CAD).
They can OPEN and WORK WITH these files - as well as save them back in their
original location?
Do the machines they utilize have access to the Internet?
If they can open and save these files someplace other than where they were
originally opened from - from within the application they use to manipulate
them - I don't know of any way to keep them from copying them someplace - by
Internet email, internet upload, USB key, CD burning, DVD burning, network
file transfer to another computer they have more control over, etc. You'd
have to have control over everything that computer they use and the server -
full and complete control. Even then - I think it might be a bit
unrealistic.
