hi, I have maui app run on windows. it has these feature. it block the access to cd-rome and usb to insert files from outside to computer using impersonation. implementing safe bit locker with impersonation. implementing safe use of usb with impersonation. implementing safe burning of cd-rome with impersonation. what is the best way to implement it in maui? any alternative? thanks,

You have several issues: safe bit locker is windows only feature not sure what your use case of impersonation, but its not a Unix/Mac feature. maybe superuser would work on Unix/Mac, there is one filesystem. usb and cd drives mount into it. you could change the permissions Maui apps for Mac are built as Catalyst Apps. They run in a sandbox and do not have access to usb/cd/dvd drives or superuser.

Do you run your maui application in the Mac's emulator?

Which kind of emulator that you use on Mac? Such as VMWARE. you can disable Automatically connect new USB devices to turn off automatic connection of USB devices for your emulator.

I want to add the above features to Maui app in MAC order to run the app in MAC.

The idea of features is to block Device control(usb, cdrome) and only antivirus user will go to device control through impersonation.
