I saw usbkill and silk-guardian sometime back. I specifically like the whole shutdown or whatever I want to be done if a usb key is inserted which isn't whitelisted before. Does anybody of any alternative software which has the same/similar functionality in Debian.

          There's usbguard:




          USB device authorization policy framework



          The USBGuard software framework helps to protect your computer against
          rogue USB devices (a.k.a. BadUSB) by implementing basic whitelisting
          and blacklisting capabilities based on device attributes.




          There's also a GUI available with usbguard-applet-qt:




          This package contains the qt-applet for controlling usbguard.




          All this won't protect the computer from an USB Kill key, unless an electrical safety device is used between.
