Is there any way to block the specific USB Port...

Hello Guys,

Is there any method to disable or block the specific USB Port, i.e. Only block the USB Port in the front panel of the machine...

For Example: If anyone want to use their USB Key (Flash Key) to transfer files, they must inform their Administrator first.

Thanks

Using my USB drive letter manager you can let
remount USB drives on specific USB ports to
a folder on an NTFS drive. If you restrict this
folder then the user cannot access or not write
to it.

If you want to allow the access later, you can
either give the user the access data or you can
remount it back to a drive letter remotely using
SysInternals psexec and my tool ReMount.

I'm not kidding. Several corporations have done just that.
