Abstract
An input peripheral agent intercepts input commands on a host machine and enforces policy conditions and whitelist conditions before deciding whether to permit the commands to be processed by an operating system of the host or whether to ignore the commands on the host machine. In an embodiment, the policy conditions and whitelist conditions can be dynamically changed by a remote network manager without changing, stopping, and/or restarting the input peripheral agent and/or the host machine.
