Adeona: Open Source Laptop Tracker
Find your lost or stolen laptop with Adeona, a silent and effective tracking solution for recovering your device quickly.
What is Adeona?
Adeona is a free and open source software that helps users locate lost or stolen laptops. It works by silently reporting and tracking the laptop's location periodically so that even if it gets stolen or lost, the legitimate owner is able to locate and retrieve it.
Once installed on a laptop, Adeona continues to run in the background logging the device's IP address and taking periodic screenshots. This information is encrypted and transmitted securely to the owner's Adeona server. So the owner can view the location trail of their laptop and the screenshots to identify the person using it.
Adeona provides a useful way for laptop owners to secure their device. Even if stolen, Adeona improves the chances of identifying and retrieving the laptop by capturing sensitive information about the thief secretly. However, there are some privacy implications about remotely accessing information from personal devices that users should consider before deploying Adeona.
