USB detection identifies when removable media connects to or disconnects from employee systems. We360.ai detects and logs external USB connections on monitored endpoints for data loss prevention, records device identifier and timestamp, and keeps an immutable audit trail, so security and compliance teams get visibility across regulated and non-regulated teams.

Explainer

What exactly is USB detection software?

It detects and logs when removable media connects to monitored endpoints, so security teams have visibility into a common data-exfiltration path.

USB events are logged continuously in the background, and every administrative change is captured in an immutable audit log, so security and compliance teams share the same evidence trail without extra tooling.

What does it capture?
The device connect and disconnect event, with device identifier, timestamp, and employee. Not the files transferred.
Is it part of DLP?
Yes. USB detection works with application auditing and screen capture for comprehensive data loss prevention.
Where is it enabled?
Under Settings, then Compliance & Security, as the External USB Detection toggle, applied organization-wide.
Is there an audit trail?
Yes. Immutable Audit Logs record every administrative change with timestamp and actor ID.
How is this different from an endpoint DLP suite or MDM device control?
Endpoint DLP suites are security-engineering-focused; MDM device control is IT-device-admin-focused. We360.ai's USB detection ties into the same platform as productivity and attendance data, giving IT, security, and compliance shared visibility.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

How USB Detection Works Inside Workforce Analytics

USB events are one DLP signal in the same platform doing productivity, attendance, and screen capture.

01 DEFINE

Enable USB detection

Admin enables External USB Detection under Settings, then Compliance & Security.
