uHook USB Disk Security

I never knew that the uHook USB Security of Data Resolve comes up with such cool features to protect my PC. In fact while installing I had no idea that it would be so user friendly.

It’s been quite a few days I am using it, and now I mean I realize that even without my knowledge it keeps on blocking viruses that gets extended through any USB storage. This disk security automatically disables autorun.inf, which is quite an eye candy, and also any malicious activities that get their way through any wicked virus prone USB storage media.

I tried some of the free and some of the trial version of products for blocking usb drives for my office. I must say that uHook USB Disk Security was the most comprehensive one. The best thing I liked about this product is its capability to block even the users with administrative privilege. It was rerally helpful for me because we need to give administrative access to our employee on some of the machines. Administrators can't by pass uHook Security because of two reasons, as I could find out:-

1. They can not uninstall the program, because uninstallation rerquires a password, which only I can set and change

   
   




2. They can not just delete the installation files or end the process for usb security, because doing these things makes the usb drives completely blocked

   
   

I strongly recommend this product to small business owners, but before you spend the money be sure to test out the product. It worked great for me but it might not suit your needs.

With increasing usage of different kinds of USB storage devices and uncountable number of cases of data theft through USB drives, products like uHook USB Disk Security are definitely going to go a long way in solving these problems. Besides, apart from internet, the second major source of virus spread is USB storage.We are in a world where we can’t just live without USB storage, to name a few, IPOD, Flash Drives, SD Cards, Digital Cameras, Cell Phones, external Hard drives are some of them and many more, waiting to flood the market very soon.

Not only uHook helps its users block all malicious/unknown usb devices, monitors all activities of file copy operation and blocks virus and worms by blocking autorun.inf, but the solution also blocks malicious users from uninstalling it. Because, whenever a person tries to uninstall it, he should have the password which is assigned only to the actual user who installed the application.

Besides, the solution is designed in such a way that any tempering with the install files or the software will render all the USB storage device completely blocked on the system until the administrator runs a fresh installation. There are a lot of vendors selling USB security solution, but each one of those miss out one thing or the other to provide a complete and perfect solution. Besides, none of these applications provide real value for money as the cost of these solutions are far above an end user can afford. Paying above 50 USDs is too much to ask for a USB security solution.With perfect pricing(21 USD), small download size(around 1 MB) and all the features an end user wants in a USB Security product, uHook USB Security seems to be the most promising solution in the online marketplace for windows.
