Block new attached usb network adapters

2022-11-07T19:18:50.213+00:00

Hi all!

I am looking for a way to block via Group Policy any attached USB network adapters that a client may be plug in.
I don't want to block all usb devices from clients but only usb network adapters in case they plug in (ethernet, wireless).
All clients are in a domain under Windows server 2k19.

Thank you.
