You broke it! Now you got to fix it...
I told you I didn't know of the interactions. There's got to be a reason that it's not an option. But... keep up the hacking spirit! And if you manage to find a solution, let us know...

Let's see

Hi,
is there any way to disable NAT adapter on virtual box in such a way that users doesnt have access to NAT adapter.

First of all, moving the thread to "OSX Hosts" from "Using VirtualBox".

Second... why? You want to disable Bridged, you want to disable NAT. Is this a setup in a "managed" environment, like a school or a company? If yes, then you got to keep in mind that this was/is not part of the VirtualBox philosophy. You could disable some things, but every user with access to the manual could revert them.

So, the question is: what are you trying to do? And why?

Hi Sir,

we are setting up a development environment in local laptops to perform their testing with masked data , but as per my company standards users should have internet connectivity on the Virtual machine , so we have to do disable NAT or users shouldnt have access to network adapters.

And you don't even trust your own developers? You should. That capability is not provided by VirtualBox.

So there is no way to stop users to accessing internet?

Hi ,

Its not about the trust , thats the requirement of the project.

If you trust your developers, and the requirements of the project are "No Internet access", then simply tell your developers to not access the internet. Or to enable any NICs. Or to have the "cable" disconnected.

But if you're looking for an administrative way to disable internet access from within a 100% user-controlled program, no, there's no way as far as I know.
