I think it's reasonable to be suspicious but what they described sounds mostly feasible without extra steps of tracking. What evidence did they present and how could it be tracked? - downloaded 9.7 GB of waymo data -> server logs of what files where accessed and downloaded by what user - searched for special software -> he used google while logged into a work account, so they just looked up that work accounts search history - Connected external hard drive and wiped data -> Short of automatic backups or something this seems like there is software explicitly for tracking when data is copied, where, and how much Most of this besides the external hard drive part can be done by any employer who owns your work your gmail account. What really should be alarming is how easy it is for your employer to get lots of data on you even if they aren't some tech giant.

Actually, I think that would be the easiest as I would assume any external USB devices connected to a computer would automatically send an alert to the security team due to how easily they can infect your computer with malware. I'm not sure my company has something like that but we have posters everywhere telling people to never plug external USB devices into our computers so I would not be suprised. >What really should be alarming is how easy it is for your employer to get lots of data on you even if they aren't some tech giant. Right? So much for the Principle of least privilege.
