Nothing is safe in Cyberworld. Even a
safe and secureSERVER
Linux OS like Ubuntu
can be hacked in less than 5 minutes.
APPLICATIONS
One of the things which we wanted to
implement in endpoint protection was
WINDOWS
to disable the USB port. While Linux is
almost secure from viruses, data theft

ABOUT US
In this tutorial, we will see a quick way
to disable USB ports in Ubuntu.
Method 1:
Open Terminal (Ctrl + T) and insert be-
low command
# chmod 000 /media/
(FOR DISABLE USB)
# chmod 777 /media/
(FOR ENABLE USB)
The above chmod is nothing but
change mode which is a part of
UNIX/Linux code mainly used for read
or write permission that can be repre-
sented by numbers.
Method 2:
Add a new single line in /etc/mod-
probe.d/blacklist.conf file. You can
use the following command like this:
# sudo echo "blacklist usb-storage" >>
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
From next time onwards, no one will be
able to use the USB ports.
To re-enable the use of USB port,
remove the added line from black-
list.conf.
