USB Block Coupon

USB Block is a simple and powerful software that prevents unauthorized storage devices connected to the protected computer, avoiding file extraction. The program offers protection against USB devices, DVD and even network computers.

USB Block Functions

• Device Blocking: Enable to restrict the connection of devices, like USB flash drives, DVD, and external drives.
• Prevent Data Leak: Prevent access to sensitive data with strong password-protection.

• Copy Protection: It is only possible to copy files to the white-listed devices.
• Protect against virus and malicious code: The program doesn't allow to connect external devices when they are not in the list, avoiding unwanted code copying.

Regarding to the USB Block's installation, we should note that it doesn't require further explanation, since it is an automatic routine that only needs a few user confirmations to be completed. When the program runs for the first time, it requests a master password, which will be used to enable the connected devices. The operation's principle is simple; every time you want to access a computer unit, the program shows a dialog box asking for a password; after the user authorization, the device is registered in a white-list, allowing future access without the need for a password.

The user interface looks compact and informative; in fact, the entire application can be operated from here. In the central part, is shown the computer and connected drives, along with its protection status; on the back is located the reports and log's panel, which displays as a summary the events at the drive level. On the top are placed the main functions, including 'Summary', 'Control Center', 'Authorized Devices', 'Logs and Reports' and 'Programs Options'. An important feature to consider is that USB Block can operate in 'Stealth Mode', which makes it invisible to the intruder's eyes. In addition, the program has password protection, preventing unauthorized access to modify the protection options.

All in all, USB Block has proven during the testing phase to be a simple yet powerful tool to prevent data leakage in an effective way. In addition, its advanced features, such as stealth mode and reporting capabilities make it a software piece worthy of being adopted.
