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 does anything other than policy actually prevent you from doing so?

The machine will log every device that gets connected and at what time.

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

USB connection won't work, but charging and MBT protocol generally will.
