Policy Customizer Custom Classes and USB Flash Disks


This article applies to:

  • Marshal EndPoint Security

Question:

  • Why are USB flask disks not always shown as belonging to a custom class?

Information:

You can use the Policy Customizer to create custom classes that contain specific USB Flash Disks.

If a custom class contains specific definitions of USB Flash disk(s), they will appear in the "Detected By EndPoint Security" window as assigned to that custom class, as long as the custom class is above the pre-defined "USB Flash disks" class in the Policy Customizer hierarchy.

If the custom class is moved below the pre-defined "USB Flash Disks" then the Policy Class changes to "USB Flash Disks"

To ensure that the custom class applies, place it above "USB Flash Disks" in the hierarchy.

Note:

This behavior is specific to USB Flash Disks and does not affect any other devices that may be detected by EndPoint Security.
