iPhone not blocked by Device Control

Ned

Hi,

I have configured through Enterprise Console -> Device Control all options to blocked, and enabled device control scanning.

I have one exemption under Removable Storage:

Model: Olympus DVR USB Device, Device ID: All, Access Level: Full

However when I plug in an iPhone iTunes gets blocked by application control, however the choose action dialog appears, and the user can choose microsoft image and camera wizard and access the files on the device. I wondered whether this was the desired functionality of blocking all removable storage devices in device control, or whether I can further restrict these kinds of devices.

Thanks

Ned

    I am also trying to prevent users from connecting personal iPhones to their work computers if they have iTunes installed locally on their machine by using the Sophos Device Control. These users have company issued iPhone's so iTunes is needed to configure authorized devices so the Application Control can not be used. 

    I've created a Domain test machine and applied the strictest Device Control policy possible through the 4.5 console. The policy is applying because it is stopping everything from Floppy drive, CD-ROM, and mass storage devices, but not iPhones.  

    Is there a way to only allow company issued iPhone's through Device Control?  

    Thank you,
