Control USB
hello
Any one knows of a good product that can manage, control USB drives (deny access) in a company. We are looking form something more robust then Group Policies where we can see who has access to what, white list specific people or specific USBs, etc. Would be nice if its server based, integrates with AD if possible. Environment is Windows 2008 R2 servers, XP, Windows 7 desktops. If it works on a Mac that's a huge plus.
Company would like to limit access to files so it would be difficult to copy company data to cell phone or USB and walk away with it.

To control USB port and removable devices I'd recommend DeviceLock DLP. Its base function is to control which users or groups can access USB, FireWire, Infrared, COM and LPT ports; WiFi and Bluetooth adapters; any type of printer, including local, network and virtual printers; Windows Mobile, BlackBerry, MTP-enabled devices (such as Android, Windows Phone, etc.), iPhone and Palm OS-based PDAs and smartphones; Terminal Services devices; as well as DVD/BD/CD-ROMs, floppy drives, and other removable and Plug-and-Play devices. It's possible to set devices in read-only mode and control access to them depending on the time of day and day of the week.
