Locking down an embedded device
is a critical element in architecting an embedded
system, but open USB ports provide a security hole
that is difficult to plug. There are enterprise
solutions, but most embedded systems are mobile or
standalone. SecureBus™ is a standalone solution
designed specifically for embedded systems.
SecureBus™ is a patent pending
security product that prevents unauthorized USB
devices from working in Windows®. SecureBus™ is a
special USB device driver that acts like a
firewall for USB host ports. Any time a USB
device is plugged into the system SecureBus™ will
analyze the hardware and determine if it is an
authorized USB device. If the device is not
an authorized USB device then SecureBus™ will
prevent it from binding with the Windows® Kernel.
When you install SecureBus™ the
installation program will identify and display all
USB devices connected to the system. By
default they will be allowed and added to the
authorized list. You can simply uncheck any
present USB devices to remove them from the
allowed device whitelist. You can also add
devices to the allowed whitelist that are not
currently connected to the system by adding custom
entries to the allowed authorized list.
