Device Control regulates access to external storage devices and network resources connected to computers. Device Control helps prevent data loss and leakage and, combined with file scanning, helps guard against security risks.
You can also configure exception settings based on user accounts to allow specified users access to restricted devices.
For a list of supported device models, see the Data Protection Lists document at:

CD/DVD Important:
Device Control can only limit access to CD/DVD recording devices that use the Live File System format. Some third-party applications that use Master Format can still perform read/write operations even with Device Control enabled. Use Data Loss Prevention to limit access to CD/DVD recording devices that use any format type. For details, see Blocking Access to Data Recorders (CD/DVD). |
