Then try this
1. Open 'Application and device control' policy in Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager.
2. Click on the device control tab.
3. Under the 'blocked devices' section click the ADD button and select the USB option.
4. Click the ADD button under "Excluded from Blocking" and select, one by one, all of the other devices that use USB that should not be blocked (eg: pointing devices, keyboard, cameras, joysticks, HDD, etc. )
5. Click Ok to save the changes and assign policy.
