It's usually an indication of different USB ports. Like 2.0, 3.0, 3.1. Some motherboard manufacturers have special 'gaming peripheral ports' and stuff and these are sometimes colored red. Sometimes they just color the 3.0 ports red too.

 

There is no real standard, but the most common color layout is:

2.0 = white

3.0 = blue

3.1 = light blue

Just a correction, the USB standard actually does have standard colors.

 

USB 1.0/1.1 is grey, USB 2.0 is black, USB 3.0 and 3.1 SS (5Gb/s) are dark blue, and USB 3.1 SS+ (10Gb/s) are light blue.

 

Any other non-defined color may be substituted for the standard ones but are vendor defined.
