For some devices, the standard timeout period needs to be extended for USB devices to properly load in the pre log in environment, especially if they connect it to a USB port that was not previously used for the device (just as with any USB KB or mouse that was connected to a port that it had not been on before).įor many years I have counseled EU's to NOT use public WiFi's as they are prime targets for skimmers and scanners, with hotels, transit hubs, eateries, etc being prime targets. By enforcing GPO/registry rules, you can force the system to establish the connection before showing the log in prompt, and further script it to establish a VPN connection before log in prompt. Ideally, a user would have their company provided MiFi up and running, no matter if it is wired or wireless to the system, before they even turn on the computer. This security step can be bypassed, but to do so would expose the system to irresponsible levels of uncontrolled access via WiFi. The main issue is that you can not pre-authorize unknown networks in the pre log in environment as they require user action to connect as per default security settings. This can be achieved, but, you should only use pre-authorized networks or connections to do so.ĭrivers are loaded pre log in, so that is not an issue.
