Hello, this time I want to talk about applications that in my opinion is very effective in tracking down and securing the device is lost or stolen, in this case we use the application “Prey” This application was made by Prey Project and Open Source, language courses in making this application ie using Python, we just discussed thoroughly.

Prey installation on a Mac

After you download the time you do the installation prey on your desktop device, if completed installation will usually show you a choice of options as a new user or a long-time user, but if on a Mac will automatically open a browser to select the entry as a new user or a long time user.

Almost the same in general, which locks the device and only we know password combination to open it.

5. Wipe Data

This feature is the same as “Erase Data” and all the data on our devices will be permanently deleted through the “wipe data” to save our important data from people who are not responsible.
