> I don't trust government to maintain the security level my job requires

What does the security officer at your company say?

Either you shouldn't be leaving with devices with the data from your job on them, or you don't trust them, but your job is fine with it.

I keep work things separate. If it's a personal trip, I don't travel with work devices. If it's a work trip, and there's worry, I usually take a loaner device usually with ms office and a vpn.

Usually the issue is not returning, but other governments.
