Actually, you can't put them in the computer where I work. Safety protocols, you can't use any devices except that but you're provided for you by the company

No you can't, every device has to be approved by the company, and they need to know exactly what you're using this device for. It's so strict that literally I can't even plug my phone into a computer if I forget to bring my wall plug, in order to charge it I mean.

So what happens to the device if your phone does get plugged in? Firewall at the input?
