BusKill is simple. When armed, a USB removal will trigger the screen to lock (by default).
BusKill runs in Linux, Windows, and MacOS.
Q: Self-destruct?!? Will this brick my computer?
A: No. The BusKill app does not have the ability to harm your hardware and our app ships with non-destructive triggers only.
