Disable GNOME3 Automounting The system's default desktop environment, GNOME3, will mount devices and removable media (such as DVDs, CDs and USB flash drives) whenever they are inserted into the system. To disable automount and autorun within GNOME3, the 'automount', 'automount-open', and 'autorun-never' settings must be set under an appropriate configuration file(s) in the '/etc/dconf/db/local.d' directory and locked in '/etc/dconf/db/local.d/locks' directory to prevent user modification. After the settings have been set, run 'dconf update'.


Parameter:


Technical Mechanism:

Disabling automatic mounting in GNOME3 can prevent the introduction of malware via removable media. It will, however, also prevent desktop users from legitimate use of removable media. Fix: No Remediation Info
