How the USB Port Blocker Became the Mainstay of Cybersecurity

    HUNTSVILLE, AL, November 13, 2019 /24-7PressRelease/ -- To save, to connect, to share, to utilize – the USB port is to data what the faucet is to water, the commonplace focus for beginning. Even devices with Firewire connections are usually accompanied by USB adaptors, because, without them, it would be like working in a second language – without knowing the language.

Little wonder, then, that the USB blocker is basic to securing data networks and information systems. Considering the number of USB ports that surround us in the workplace, not protecting each one with a port blocker reminds some security specialists of opening every gate at an airport and not posting security checkpoints. They are that numerous and a great deal more active.

The physical vulnerabilities of the data networks on which we all depend are profound and fundamental. Yet, USB ports and cable connectors are commonly left unsecured, inviting both contamination from well-meaning associates and sabotage from hostile or predatory interests.

There's no reason to carry on without the USB blocker on your side. Cost is not a serious obstacle, and that is yet another reason that this unguarded sector of the cybersecurity perimeter is so surprising. The inexpensive, unassuming looking, yet elegantly engineered USB blocker is so easy to acquire, deploy, and factor into your operation.

From The Connectivity Center, you'll find the USB blocker for a price you might find hard to believe. What's more, a color-coded USB blocker can offer you the opportunity to visually identify who is qualified to install and remove them from a given operation. For unlocking them, two kinds of keys are offered, the Enterprise and Professional series of the Smart Keeper USB Port Lock Key. Key patterns are strictly controlled, yet you can order duplicate keys to suit your own security authorization structure.

To further protect computers and networks, Link Lock connectors, the Link Lock Hub, and a variety of locking 4K high-speed cables can secure ubiquitous USB ports and network connections, and also lock your devices so that they cannot be removed without authorized access.
