Mumbai, Mar 11, 2008
Unistal Systems, a provider of data care, data recovery, antivirus and internet security products, services and training, announced the launch and availability of a new software product Locate Laptop - powered by proprietary WebSniff technology.
Developed in-house by Unistal over the years, the product can locate reportedly stolen laptops leveraging on the World Wide Web. It also helps organizations in tracking the employees movement around the world.
Alok Gupta, director, Unistal Systems, said, "Laptop thefts and loss are on the rise and have led to serious damages for professionals and corporate. According to industry sources, 97 per cent of stolen computers are never recovered and 57 per cent of corporate crimes are linked to them... all the more reason for corporate and individual professionals to be proactive and adopt preventive measures like Locate Laptop."
According to the company, Locate Laptop not only tracks and recovers stolen computers it deters theft. It keeps track of the whereabouts of each employee while traveling and the moment he logs in via the web, a report is generated with his complete details and is sent to a designated individual within the organization. This is done without the knowledge of the employee, so as to maintain privacy.
To view and trace where their laptop has been accessed from, users need to log in to their web-based Personal Tracking and Monitoring Page through www.locatelaptop.com
In the event of theft or loss, users need to report to Unistal's emergency response team or login to their Personal Tracking and Monitoring Page and submit the theft/loss. This activates Locate Laptop's WebSniff technology and alerts as soon as the offender connects to the internet. The city and IP address are informed to the user. It keeps tracking all the locations whenever the offender connects to the internet. With the help of local law enforcement authorities users can retrieve their laptop.
Locate Laptop is available at all Unistal's authorized channel partners at a price of Rs.3,000 (US$55) per license. It can also be bought online at http://www.locatelaptop.com. The company is also offering 'money back' guarantee on the product to its Indian customers, which clearly states that they will get 5 times the cost of Locate Laptop software in case the laptop is not traceable.
