Hi Meinolf,

That would be a help to block those devices. I asked once before on
some newsgroup but didn't get an answer to that solution. How is it
possible to block permissions for burning to CD/DVD and writing to USB
drives, etc?

TIA,

Bill

No, if they can use them for work, they also can copy them. Think
about blocking all ports, USB, CD/DVD etc. so that they can't export
them to external devices or burn them.

Is it possible to restrict file access not only to certain users,
but also to certain programs? We have some data files that we want
people to be able to open with a CAD program, but we don't want them
to be able to use File Explorer to copy them to another location.
Basically we are trying to allow workers to do their work but
prevent them from removing the data files from the company. So any
other ideas to do this would be appreciated too.
