    Hi,

    1.    Install Symantec Endpoint Protection, including the Network Threat Protection feature, on the clients where USB drives will be used

    2.    Ensure that the clients is communicating with the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager (SEPM)

    3.    Log on to the SEPM console and click on the Policies tab in the left hand window pane

    4.    Select Application and Device Control

    5.    Create a new policy or edit an existing Application and Device Control policy

    6.    Click on Application Control and select the following options:

    ·         Make all removable drives read-only

    ·         Block writing to USB drives

    7.    Assign the policy to the client(s) in question

    8.    Reboot the client(s) to implement the policy.
