Today, we released a new feature: Removable Storage Controls
Jamf Protect administrators can now manage or prevent the use of removable storage devices to protect against accidental data loss and unauthorized access. For example, USB devices can be restricted or allowed based upon encryption status, vendor ID, product ID or device serial number.
Administrators can configure Removable Storage Control Sets to apply increasingly granular rules applied to all removable storage devices, as well as allow use of specific devices with optional overrides. End users will see a popup alert if they attempt to connect a restricted device.
For more about Removable Storage Controls, see https://docs.jamf.com/jamf-protect/documentation/Removable_Storage_Controls.html.
Note: This feature is only available for computers with macOS 10.15 or later.
Also included in this release is agent 3.2.0, which resolves the following:
- Users can no longer uninstall Jamf Protect from computers without using the uninstall package.
- The USBInserted event now correctly reports on computers with macOS 12.
- Threat Prevention and Custom Prevent matches are now properly quarantined if translocated.
