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

    Did anyone find a resolution for this? I am experiencing a similar issue. iPods appear to be detected and blocked just fine, but iPhones (I tested using a 3G and a 3GS, haven't tried a 4 yet) are not.

    I've been running under a "detect only" profile for a couple of months now. One thing I notice immediately is that other smartphones (Android, BlackBerry) appear in the device control event logs, but I see zero iPhone entries. As I said, iPods do appear and are subject to policy. It seems to be the iPhones that Sophos is having an issue with.
