AI agents call windows_mounted_mass_storage_usb to retrieve information from Velociraptor MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool performs forensic artifact collection from Windows Registry to query information about mounted USB and mass storage devices. It is a read-only forensic triage operation that retrieves historical data without side effects.
From the tool's definition Tool collects and returns Registry evidence of mounted mass storage devices. The description uses 'Collect evidence' and 'return' results, with no modification or deletion operations.
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access windows_mounted_mass_storage_usb gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Velociraptor MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for windows_mounted_mass_storage_usb:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"windows_mounted_mass_storage_usb": {}
}
}windows_mounted_mass_storage_usb is read-only, so it stays allowed — but everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Collect evidence of mounted mass storage from Registry on a Windows host. Args: client_id: Velociraptor client ID. org_id: Optional Velociraptor org ID for multi-tenant deployments. Fields: Comma-separated list of fields to return. Returns: Mounted mass storage artifact results as a string or error message. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Velociraptor MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Velociraptor MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for windows_mounted_mass_storage_usb: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Velociraptor MCP. Nothing to install.
windows_mounted_mass_storage_usb is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the windows_mounted_mass_storage_usb rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for windows_mounted_mass_storage_usb. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
windows_mounted_mass_storage_usb is provided by the Velociraptor MCP server (mgreen27/mcp-velociraptor). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Velociraptor MCP, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
