    I guess you either work for a company with highly sensitive data, or the IT people are overdramatizing a tad bit.

    I also believe that IT security is important, but it should remain reasonable.

    Sounds to me like more of a power play by management than a sensible security concept.

      They said store so I assume they work in retail. Why would a retail employee need a company email? And not allowing people to plug in USB sticks into an intranet (especially with POS machines) is just standard operating procedures.
