This article explains how to lock USB ports on devices in EloView 3
See below steps for how to lock USB ports on a device in EloView.
External flash and hard drives are one of the most significant potential threats to any computer system. With EloView, you can lock down any USB port on a managed device to protect it from malware and viruses, as well as unauthorized data transfers. Unlike many software-based solutions which block access to USB devices but leaves the USB port fully-functional, EloView powers down the USB controller chip itself, rendering the USB port useless. This hardware-based approach is much more secure.
