Abstract

The usage of a number of personal portable devices like palmtops, laptops are increasing day by day. The more we use our laptop, the more we have lost if it is stolen or misplaced. The cost of the device may be recovered from insurance but the loss of data cannot be recovered. We proposed software that will track the device without GPS system in them. By this software, we can trace our device location by using Wi-Fi hotspot instead of IP address. It also retrieves our data and important files without knowing anyone by using latest cloud computing technology. Also, we can access and control hard-drive from home and watch as to what is typed from the keyboard in real-time.
