Open your iPhone. Settings -> Touch ID & Passcode. (The red fingerprint icon) -> scroll all the way down and TURN OFF "USB accessories".
You're welcome.

Remember the longer your passcode (longer than 15 characters)the better chance of your device surviving brute Force attempts. Don't lock yourself out of your device. Easy way to lengthen your passcode is enter it 3 times. Once you get used to that for a year or so start adding characters.Update your iPhone to the latest version to further protect it from unintended unlocks.
