Yeah, I mean it depends on the employer – they said they were working from home but I dnot’ remember if it was stated whether this was their personal pc or a work computer. Even working at the service desk, tryign to suggest that an organisation do thigns differently (or use a different application) is sometimes just a losing battle – they just won’t budge. But you never know

I read that as meaning that encryption is required, and nothing more.  I could be wrong.  But were I in this position, I would be pushing back against the need for drive encryption in general and BitLocker in particular.  It's gross overkill if it's strictly client data that you're seeking to encrypt.

There are other alternatives.  And the one I mentioned has now been confirmed as fully accessible and does not require full drive encryption.  There are others, too.

I do not understand why some seek to separate a person from their actions.  The self is composed of an individual’s thoughts, actions, and expression, which are contained in and actuated by the body.  What you do and say is the clearest indicator of who you are.
