Issue with Cortex XDR Windows Portable Device Policy Not Working

Vinothkumar_SBA — Sat, 02 Mar 2024 05:55:44 GMT

Hi community,

We have assigned the Windows Portable Device block policy to some endpoints. However, we have observed that USBs are still accessible on those machines.

For future troubleshooting, we need to verify whether the policy is correctly assigned and whether the endpoints are properly connected. Could you please provide guidance on how to troubleshoot this issue? Your assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
