About
A desktop interface for USBGuard, the Linux daemon that decides which USB devices are allowed to talk to your computer. See every connected device and whether it is authorized, read the policy rules in the order the daemon evaluates them, and find out precisely why access fails when it does. The application runs without any privileges of its own. Every change is made by the USBGuard daemon, after the system's own authorization checks have approved it. - Live device list, resilient to hubs with dozens of devices - Elenco dei dispositivi in tempo reale, che regge anche hub con decine di dispositivi - The policy ruleset in evaluation order - Le regole nell’ordine di valutazione - Diagnostics that name the exact cause of an access problem and its remedy - Una diagnostica che indica la causa esatta di un problema di accesso e come risolverlo - Changes no system configuration: every change goes through USBGuard - Non modifica la configurazione del sistema: ogni modifica passa da USBGuard Requires the USBGuard daemon and its D-Bus bridge (usbguard-dbus) on the host.
