- mywacaday 9y agoArticle says its a banking environment, nobody outside of desktop support will have admin access to their PC/Laptop. That includes developers/application support/server admins/DBAs etc. If you want an application installed that's not on an approved list request will likely go to IT security for review(Don't hold your breath). portableapps.com made life somewhat bearable. PS No Dropbox/Google Drive/Onedrive, No personal webmail and a heavily restricted proxy for all browsing.
