  • Removing item from list
  • Changing structure (organization) of list

Proposed Changes

It's an anti-forensic macOS tray application designed to safeguard your system or server by monitoring USB ports. It ensures your device's operational security by automatically initiating either a system shutdown or hibernation if an unauthorized device connects or a connected device is unplugged. It offers the flexibility to whitelist designated devices, to select an action to be executed and to set a countdown timer, allowing to disarm the shutdown process. It's a revival of the well-known usbkill project by hephaestos, but with a Graphical User Interface and added functionality.

PR Checklist

  • I have read the CONTRIBUTING guide
  • I have explained why this PR is important
  • I have added necessary documentation (if appropriate)

Further Comments

For non-technical user, using the original usbkill command line tool (see above) is far too difficult. This is the reason for swiftGuard: It offers a nice, clean and intuitive Interface with some additional features, whitelisting and an active development (unlike usbkill, which seems abandoned).
