The best way to secure USB ports without letting it affect the 
productivity of your staff is to keep a software controlled central 
access to these ports. In this way the access to these ports can be 
defined for different locations and it can be decided whether the port 
must be assigned read only, read write, or a disabled status. This will 
also allow the employees to concentrate on the job at hand instead of 
bothering about security. Policy based decisions regarding the status 
of the USB ports allows the staff to work at their normal speed without 
hampering security.
