    Like the subject says - I'm curious whether the current 
    regime of inspection and "forensic analysis" of laptops, 
    primarily in the US, has affected corporate policies 
    regarding disk crypto.
    
    Is there anybody studying this? Any resources available online?
  

Funny you should mention that, just saw this today:
"At U.S. Borders, Laptops Have No Right to Privacy"

We have be spending an increasing amount of time working with vendors of
both forensic tools and disc encryption technology, trying to find tips,
tricks, and techniques that can be used when warranted.
