If they're owned by end-users, they shouldn't be used to store corporate
data.
Interestingly though, in the case of TrueCrypt and the concept of
plausible denial .. what's to stop a legal adversary from saying "you
must have the documents I need on that encrypted drive, it's gotta be in
a hidden volume".
You can't prove you don't .. they can't prove you do.
What then? (IANAL, etc.)
