Is there any code solution preventing data transfer from an attached USB drive to computer?

Thank you in advanced

Assuming you're looking for a Windows-based solution, you can write a file system filter driver to prevent reading files from USB drives, much like how anti-virus software intercepts file access. However, with bootable USB devices and BadUSB, there's more than one way for malware to attack a system.

For more information on intercepting file system access, see How does a Windows antivirus hook into the file access process?
