I can think of 2 solutions to this issue offhand.
- Accept general input from a keyboard or mouse only after the user's password has been entered into a confirmation window. (Even just a yes/no would work here.)
- Change all key shortcuts and menus that can execute things (WinKey+R, Alt+F2, etc.) to something nonstandard. You could also remove them altogether or prompt for a password if afraid of a targeted attack.
The question then becomes this: Are there other attacks that can use USB to execute code beside mimicking input devices?
- kelmop 12y agosure, your device can mimic keyboard.
