Employer-provided phone. Gub't issue Blackberry. Only those phones are allowed in the workplace, no personal electronics, period.

We can do email from any computer, personal or not. I don't think that there's a way to run the encryption software that we use on a personal PC however. We deal with lots of unclassified but tightly controlled information that has to be encrypted, so email from home is sort of useless. The phones have the encryption stuff, anyway, so I usually just use that.

Two of our peer DoE labs are permitting personal phones into the security areas, even into vaults. That really freaks me out. We permit our official phones into vaults by lab-wide policy but I guarantee that my vtr has a local rule prohibiting them.

You know that you can't turn a phone off without pulling the battery, right?
