A Proof of Concept for Offline Laptop Tracking

Losing a laptop is not only limited to its cost. However it also includes loss of sensitive information stored in it. In case of a theft, the precious data may fall into the wrong hands. Available laptop tracking software solutions require the laptop to be connected to internet which is usually in the form of Wi-Fi connection. Thus, it proves useless if there is no internet connection. The main objective of the offline laptop tracking system is to track a stolen laptop without making use of internet. In any developing country like India, wireless internet connectivity is limited to residences or organizations for personal use and its availability in public places is almost nil. Unlike all internet dependent tracking solutions, the proposed solution successfully meets the needs of laptop users in places on globe where the availability of internet as such is restricted.
