Abstract
PC systems are often placed unguarded and can easily become victims of theft. This invention utilizes the commonly seen features on PC systems (PC beep, G-sensor, and network function) to improve PC systems’ security and protection. PC systems are monitored remotely by IT center through network. When a PC system is physically removed from network, security will be informed, and the PC system will sound alarm. The implementation of this invention into current PC system design is inexpensive. Little HW modification is required. Previous anti-theft protection methods mostly only consider locking PC system to its original position. This invention informs security when a theft event has taken place and there’ll also be alarm sound to inform security the whereabout of the burglar if burglar tries to carry PC system away.
