Write an udev rule that matches devices by their idVendor attribute (ATTR{idVendor}) and writes 0 to the authorized and/or 1 to remove attributes, causing Linux to eject the device.
(Really, you even tagged your question udev...)

i did the udev thing but i couldnt do it right i guess, here is what i wrote: SUBSYSTEM=="usb",ATTR{idVendor}=="[VENDOR ID]", ATTR{idProduct}=="[PRODUCT ID]",ENV{UDISKS_IGNORE}="1" – mike – 2014-12-26T19:43:59.403
