  2. Agenda • Problem and Motivation • Solution • Behind the Scene • Customizing the Solution • Disclaimer • Progress Report

  3. Problem and Motivation: • Laptop theft is a very common problem. Specifically we will focus onthe FIU environment where the school has experienced a rash of laptop thefts particularly Mac.

  5. Solution • We will use the following agent procedures Camera Picture Capture and a few additional procedures to aid in an effort to recover stolen laptops.

  9. Customizing the Solution • There is a lot of room for customization with this project and ideas such as expanding our range…. • Include PCs in recovery • Running a script to check to see what platform the computer is before implementing any script. • Running a script to check if the computer has a webcam.

  10. Disclaimer • The agents procedures are attended to work with Mac and requires the computer already have Kaseya already installed • If the computer does not have OS X or a webcamera some of the procedure will not work.

  11. Progress Report • We understand how the solution works in the environment but we are still researching and brain storming the best way to implement these procedures into the current environment. • We have tested a few of the procedures but not all of the procedures have been tested so not all of them can be guaranteed to work.
