The issue is with foreign USB devices such as flash drives not your own
keyboard although some keyboards feature re-programmable firmware (ex:
crapple) which is pretty dangerous, it has never been done AFAIK but
theoretically a virus could re install itself via this method to survive
an OS wipe.
Improved security means more than one sys-usb, one for input devices and
another for flash drives.
Ylu would get another USB card on a desktop for flash drives or w/e,
quality laptops usually have two controllers and if they don't you can
use an expresscard device.
FYI:
Unicomp's Model M mechanical keyboards are secure, the only way to
reprogram the firmware is to solder in a new ROM chip. they are also a
dream to type on and made in america - very high quality user
replaceable wires drain holes and they will last at least 20 years. I
have had my one for 10 years and it still looks great worth the price
for sure.
