All of these things are mentioned in the Lone Star Sourcebook. Since its
hard to get, I'll assume that you don't have it.
Normal procedure for detaining Awawkened suspects are designed to prevent
the prisoner from making any kind of magical actions. A straight jacket is
used to prevent him from using his arms, a specially fitted mouthpiece
allows him to breathe but not talk, and a blindfold is used to prevent him
from seeing any targets.
If the prisoner is being particularly ornery, or there is a chance that he
might try to astrally project, a special mask is used which basically
screams in his ears continuously that prevents him from concentrating on
any magical activity whatsoever.
Of course a lot of these procedures could be classified as cruel and
unusual punishment, but they are on corporate property.
Basically don't get caught.
