  Depends on the level of corporate restrictions. Workstations with the "developer" policy applied may do that (if they managed to smuggle the executable through the HTTP proxy, and as long as the program doesn't open an inbound port - upon which event the OS kills it) but others can only run whitelisted executables. Every day I miss the Debian computer I have at home.

  Try getting those through a corporate DLP proxy.

  Best practice security recommendation for executables these days (in corp env) is to block all execution of all executables outside of protected folders, i.e. Program Files and Windows. Severely limits the initial attack surface (disable that rule or supply chain attack). As a developer who hates installing programs that might be one offs, I hate the idea of it, but I can't deny the benefits.

    That was my idea from the beginning among forbidding macros in Office and enforcing text email everywhere for corporate comms among an internal Jabber/SIP server for group videoconferences and a hacked up News (NNTP) server for internal discussions and news, which would be one of the best tools to implement an easy discussion board to mark both issues and schedules. But $BOSS won't like that, they want to execute anything everywhere.
