Description

Controls which USB devices are allowed to connect by applying authorization policies. It is useful for protecting workstations and managed systems against unknown or unauthorized USB hardware.

This is a security service. Strict policies can block keyboards, storage, phones, or recovery devices, so administrators should test rules before enforcing them broadly.

How to run
