Prey - a lightweight application that track down your stolen Mac, Windows and Linux laptop
Geo-location aware
Prey uses wifi hotspots to locate devices geographically. In GPS enabled phones, Prey uses their embedded GPS to get the location. You’d be amazed by the precision of the mapping!
Wifi autoconnect
Prey checks if there’s an active internet connection to send the information. If not, it will attempt to connect to the nearest open wifi access point available. This gives you a better chance to locate the device.
Lightweight
Yes, this is a feature. Prey is written in bash which means it has virtually no dependencies, only what its different modules need to work. This also means Prey is portable and should run in just about any computer.
Modular architecture
You can add, remove and configure the different parts of Prey as you wish. Prey is composed by modules, each one performing a specific task, so you can have it as you like.
Powerful report system
Get the list of current running programs, the recently modified files, active connections, running uptime, take a screenshot of the running desktop or even a picture of the guy who’s using the computer.
Messaging/alert system
You can alert the user he’s being chased at by sending messages which’ll appear on screen. You can also trigger alarms to make the message clear not only to him but also to whomever is nearby. Be careful with this one!
Full auto updater
You don’t have to reinstall Prey each time by hand to keep up with the latest and greatest features. If enabled, Prey will verify its current version (and each one of its modules) and will automatically fetch and update everything for you.
