Locate Stolen laptops and Smart phones Using Prey Tool in Ubuntu
|
||||
================================================================================
|
||||
Prey is an open source, cross platform tool which helps recover your stolen laptops, desktops, tablet computers and smart phones. It has gained vast popularity and has claimed to help recover hundreds of missing laptops and smart phones. The working of this tool is pretty simple, install it on your Laptop or smart phone, and if your device goes missing, login the Prey website with your credentials and mark your device as “Missing” there. As soon as the thief connects your device with internet, it will immediately send you the Geo location of your device. If your laptop is having webcam, it will also capture the screenshot of the thief.
|
||||
|
||||
Prey consumes minimum system resources; it does not affect your device’s performance in any way. You can also use it alongside any other anti-theft application you had installed on your device. It uses secure and encrypted channels to communicate your device data with Prey servers.
|
||||
|
||||
### Installing and configuring Prey on Ubuntu ###
|
||||
|
||||
Let’s see how we can install and configure Prey on ubuntu, note that during configuration process, we will have to register an account at Prey official website. Once done, it will be able to monitor your devices. Its free account monitors up-to 3 devices, if you need to add more devices to its watch list, you need to purchase appropriate plan.
|
||||
|
||||
Considering the popularity and use of Prey, it has been added to the official ubuntu repository now. That means you don’t need to add any additional PPA to the package manager. Simply launch your terminal application and run the following command to install it:
|
||||
|
||||
sudo apt-get install prey
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
It is a very lightweight application, uses only few MB of space on the system, once installation is completed, launch it from Applications >> Prey and it will ask you for the configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
Choose “New user” if you are using this app for first time.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
This second step is actually the process to sign you up on Prey official website. Please provide your username, email address and password for free account.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Hit “Apply” once done, that’s all, your computer is now protected by Prey.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Login your newly created [Prey account][1] and you should be able to see your device information there under “Devices” menu.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
As soon as your laptop or any other device goes missing, simply login your Prey web account and change the device status to “missing” by clicking “Set Device to Missing” option.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Choose report frequency from here and hit “Yes, my device is missing”. Report Frequency option is the time interval after which this app will send you status updates for your device location. It will email you as soon as the device status is changed from web interface.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
As soon as your stolen device is connected to the internet, it will immediately send you report, containing your device's Geo whereabouts and IP address.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Click the report link and you should be able to see your device’s Geo location and IP address.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
There is one known drawback in Prey , It needs your device to be connected to internet for sending Geo location, if thief is smart enough to format your device hard disk before connecting it to the network, then you’ll never get report of its recovery. But there is still a work around to overcome this drawback, make sure to add a BIOS password and disable booting the system from removable devices.
|
||||
|
||||
### Conclusion ###
|
||||
|
||||
It is a small, very useful security application which lets you track all of your devices on a single place, although not perfect, but still provides good level of recovery chances for your stolen devices. It runs seamlessly on Linux, Windows and Mac operating system. Here are details about Prey Pro plans.

Ubuntu中，使用Prey定位被盗的笔记本与手机
|
||||
===============================================================================
|
||||
Prey是一款跨平台的开源工具，可以帮助你找回被盗的笔记本，台式机，平板和智能手机。它已经获得了广泛的流行，声称帮助召回了成百上千台丢失的笔记本和智能手机。Prey的使用特别简单，首先安装在你的笔记本或者手机上，当你的设备不见了，用你的账号登入Prey网站，并且标记你的设备为“丢失”。只要小偷将设备接入网络，Prey就会马上发送设备的地理位置给你。如果你的笔记本有摄像头，它还会拍下小偷。
|
||||
|
||||
Prey占用很小的系统资源；你不会对你的设备运行有任何影响。你也可以配合其他你已经在设备上安装的防盗软件使用。Prey采用安全加密的通道，在你的设备与Prey服务器之间进行数据传输。
|
||||
|
||||
### 在Ubuntu上安装并配置Prey ###
|
||||
|
||||
让我们来看看如何在Ubuntu上安装和配置Prey，需要提醒的是，在配置过程中，我们必须到Prey官网进行账号注册。一旦完成上述工作，Prey将会开始监视的设备了。免费的账号最多可以监视三个设备，如果你需要添加更多的设备，你就需要购买合适的的套餐了。
|
||||
|
||||
想象一下Prey多么流行与被广泛使用，它现在已经被添加到了官方的软件库中了。这意味着你不要往软件包管理器添加任何PPA。很简单地，登录你的终端，运行以下的命令来安装它：
|
||||
|
||||
sudo apt-get install prey
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Prey是十分轻巧的软件，只使用了系统几兆的空间，安装完成后，从Application >> Prey启动，之后它会询问你进行相关配置。
|
||||
|
||||
选择“New User”，如果你是第一次使用的话。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
第二步实际上就是官网注册的流程。请提供你的用户名，邮箱地址和密码，来申清一个免费的账号。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
点击“Apply”完成，所有工作搞定，现在你的计算机被Prey保护了。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
登录你最新建立的[Prey 账号][1]，你就应该可以在“Devices”菜单下看见你的设备信息了。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
只要你的笔记本或者任何其他设备丢失了，就登录你的Prey网站账号，然后点击“Set Device to Missing”选项修改设备状态为“missing”。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
从这里选择定时报告，并点击“Yes，my device is missing”。定时报告选项是指一段时间间隔后，软件会更新并发送给你设备的地理位置。它还会从网页界面那发邮件给你，只要设备的状态改变了。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
而一旦被盗的设备接入了互联网，Prey就会马上发送报告给你，包括设备的地理位置和IP地址。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
点击报告链接，你应该会看到设备的地理位置和IP地址。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Prey有一个明显的不足。它需要你的设备接入互联网才会发送地理位置给你，如果小偷比较聪明，在接入网络前将你的设备磁盘格式化了，那么你就永远不会收到设备被发现的报告了。但是这里仍然是有一个方法克服这个不足，确保添加一个BIOS密码，并且禁用从可移除的设备里启动系统。
|
||||
|
||||
### 结论 ###
|
||||
|
||||
这是一款小巧，非常有用的安全保护应用，可以让你在一个地方追踪你所有的设备，尽管不完美，但是仍然提供了找回被盗设备的机会。它在Linux，Windows和Mac平台上无缝运行。以上就是Prey完整使用的所有细节。
