The document describes a smart network software solution called USB Lock Remote Protect that allows upper-level management to remotely control and enforce endpoint security policies for removable drives and storage devices connected to networked computers without disrupting normal operations. The software can authorize specific USB storage devices to function while blocking others, generate reports of connection attempts, and remotely reboot, shut down, or uninstall client computers from the network. It provides real-time protection even when clients are offline and can scale to control security for up to 1,000 computers.
