    Hi Carlos2285


    To block/disable mobile phone via Device Control from PSB web portal, you need to block the following device classes.

     

    Please add a device access rule as below, and let me know if it works:

     

    Display name: Mobile Phone storage
    HardwareID: USB\Class_FF
    Access level: Blocked

     

    Repeat this rule with the below mentioned device classes to block all smart phones:

     

    HardwareID: USB\Class_00
    HardwareID: USB\Class_08
    HardwareID: USB\Class_02
    HardwareID: USB\Class_EF

    Hi Carlos

     

    I suggest to use the hardware ID of a USB mobile device by checking the device properties in Windows Device Manager, then block the access under Device control on PSB profile.

    Using Windows Device Manager to get Hardware ID:

    1. Open Control Panel > Device Manager.
    2. Select the desired device from the tree.
    3. Right-click the device, and select Properties. The Properties dialog opens.
    4. Go to the Details tab.
    5. There are following properties with IDs:
      1. Hardware IDs
      2. Compatible IDs
      3. Device class GUID
