That's a great solution, which all of our developers are exploiting.

I feel like since I'm on the security team, I should find a non-exploit method to actually resolve the policy failure.

Perhaps the mouse jiggler IS the answer. Not to solve your own plight as a result of the policy by using one, but to illustrate what lengths people are going to in order to mitigate the undesirable effects of the policy.

Agreed man. If developers are resorting to this the policy is wrong, not the developers.
