Security risk and back door access for USB netowrk devices
I have a site wide issue were users can access the internet using USB Modems
/ Network cards. I want to disable to capability due to some recent security treat that entered our network. All PCs use USB K/K and mice there fore disabling UBS is not an option. I believe doing some work on IPSEC can resolve this issue but I cannot figure it out.. Please advice. Thanks..

Security risk and back door access for USB netowrk devices
How do you know the "security threat" was the result of the specific user
behavior you describe? What is this "security threat"? Sounds to me like you've got a human problem, not a technical one. If your users are wantonly installing their own hardware, take a moment and think why this is happening. Are they just goofing off (a human/management problem), or do they need Internet access to get their jobs done (another management problem)? -- Steve Riley http://blogs.technet.com/steriley http://www.protectyourwindowsnetwork.com "Richiesmith" wrote in message news  I have a site wide issue were users can access the internet using USB Modems / Network cards.

Strikes me this is more of a disciplinary matter than an IT one. The best approach to such issues is, I find, to make it clear that such activities WILL be detected, and that an unpleasant experience will follow for the perpetrator. Eyes glowing, he dons his hand-device... "Richiesmith" wrote: I have a site wide issue were users can access the internet using USB Modems / Network cards.
