With Port Protection you can prevent USB drives from being plugged in and used.
Port Protection should come with all the current SBA bundles.

With Media Encryption, you can allow data to be copied, but require the data to be written to an encrypted container.
Media Encryption should come with all current SBA bundles except Basic.

There is also Full Disk Encryption for the computer itself, available in some bundles.

Misremembered that 😬
There are also some packages that are more geared at Remote Access and Data Protection that don't include SBA features.
