Desktop Authority® USB and Port Security - Features and benefits

Features benefits
Integrated in the Desktop Authority Manager Familiar navigation environment means there is no learning curve for configuring USB and Port Security.
Patented Validation Logic As with all other configuration elements in Desktop Authority, Validation Logic allows a high level of granular control over which clients are restricted access according to OS, machine class, connection type, OUs, Group memberships, and over 20 other criteria.
Detailed List of Managed Devices Rather than disallow every device that plugs into a given port on a desktop, the USB and Port Security option manages over 20 different device types.
NEW! USB device Whitelist/Blacklist USB/Port Security has been enhanced to support the ability to allow or deny specific USB devices by their serial numbers. This gives the administrator the granular control of only allowing company issued USB keys for usage throughout the organization. As if that wasn't enough, you can now audit allowed and denied events for assurance that your USB ports are locked down. Also, Desktop Authority can now detect USB scanners and printers and be able to set policies to allow or deny these devices.
Granular Control Devices can be restricted to be read-only (which would allow a CD-R drive to remain usable as a CD-ROM drive), read-write, full control or complete denial of access.
Centralized Reporting Turnkey and custom reports on device usage and denials of access by device class, computer or user can be generated and scheduled for delivery via email, increasing security while simplifying management.
