Are you worried about computer security and privacy? If not here's a new product just for you! Nowadays computers have become more personal than our moneybags. Here we store all the private and work data, do banking, login to the required account — far from being hacked, we don't want any relative to have physical access to this machine. Using a password can prevent anyone from physically using the PC, but if you use a family computer, you have to share your computer even if you don't want to. Besides, if you have younger brother or sister at home, you have to tell the password. So in your absence it becomes necessary to know when and how your computer is being used. In this article I will introduce you to some of the methods that you can easily grasp, who are using your computer in your absence.
Use a spy cam
If you have a webcam installed on your computer or if you use a laptop, there must be a webcam installed. Now naturally that camera can take pictures of anyone sitting in front of the computer. But how do you make this webcam your slave? Very simple thing, download the software called iSpy for free from here.
After installing, you will understand how much work it actually does. This software has a lot of powerful features, and maybe that's what you've been looking for for so long. The software provides video recording, audio recording, accessing your recorded files online and many more. The software is very easy to use, you can see the various options in the form of tabs when you open it. You can tweak all the settings and make your own. Moreover this software supports multi video stream. Again you can set the video bitrate and resolution as you wish. Motion detection is a deadly feature of the software. Since you have your webcam set up to monitor if someone is sitting at your computer, what if the camera record is not always on and only the record is turned on when someone is actually in front of the computer? This is exactly how this feature works. You can set the sensitivity from your camera settings, if you see an object moving according to the sensitivity, the camera will turn on its recording.
Moreover, this software has the ability to automatically upload the recorded video to YouTube. But before launching this feature, just think, you definitely don't want any home video to be telecast that shouldn't have happened! (Understand, what do you mean?). However, it must be admitted that the feature is much more powerful, than the medium when accessing online video can be nothing more. Before launching the upload option on YouTube, make sure that your firewall does not block Zeno uploading. Honestly, the software has a lot more fun things to do, but if you look at all of them, this whole article will be just for this software. Explore the features manually as you install them. If there is a problem, or do not understand something, you can let me know in the comments below.
Please check the log
Today's adults are far from it, children have also become very clever. Everyone knows that what is being done on a Windows computer is stored in a log and recent item, so if someone steals it, they will clean up the log and recent file before using your computer. But it is still wise to check logs and recent files.
To check Windows computer logs, go to Computer Management Tool, from there go to Event Viewer and under it there are Windows logs. And from here you can clearly see all the information accessed to the computer. All the information about when you logged in to the computer, what keywords were searched in File Explorer, when the user logged off, etc. Although most of the time these logs have to be deleted, but if your luck is really good, you can get all the information.
It's easier to see recent files, and even easier to delete them. I've been seeing since the time of Windows XP that people delete recent access file logs in order to make the computer fast (although deleting them doesn't do anything, it doesn't make the computer fast). If you use Windows 10, right-click on any software icon from the Start menu or task bar, you will see a menu with a list open, where you can see which files have been recently opened by the software.
Key-logger
In fact, the use of everything is up to you, whether you use something bad or good. It is possible to monitor your computer using a key-logger, even though it is a hack tool, just as a bomb helps a person to break down a hill and build a railway line. Key-logger is software (malware) that saves all the data that is being pressed on the keyboard of your computer. The webcam software that we discussed at the beginning of this tune is very childish to this method. If you cover the webcam with cloth, the bullying is over. But keyloggers are specially designed to hide. Key-logger creates hidden processes and secretly captures keyboard data.
Since all key-loggers are stigmatized as malware, antivirus programs can cause problems. So you have to disable the antivirus while installing it. There are many free key-loggers that you can use. However, I would recommend using e-Lite key-logger.
Automatic screenshot
If you do not want to use key-logger for antivirus problems, then this option may be good for you. A tool called Time Snapper takes pictures of your computer screen every few seconds. Using this program is absolutely watered down. It will start working automatically once you install it. But this software can be found in the system tray, so if someone opens the system tray, the software can be caught and eaten.
If someone like me steals your computer and opens it, then first of all start the activity by opening the web browser. So it's a good idea to take a look at browsing history. If you are lucky you can get information from browsing history. But the chances of not getting it are high.
So this is today's article, where I discussed some possible methods, by following which you can easily understand who is using your computer in your absence. So which methods are you going to adopt? Or do you have any other method? Let us know in the comments below.
