Unistal Systems, a leading provider of data recovery software and Internet security products, has made announcement about the launch and availability of its new software product named as “Locate Laptop.”

This newly lunched software not only helps the users to get back their stolen laptops on their laps, but it also keeps track of the location of each employee while traveling around the world.

Locate Laptop works by using a technology called ‘Web Sniff’ that tracks the movements of the stolen machine and sends the IP addresses and location of the individual accessing the laptop to the original owner.   

This is done without the knowledge of the employee, so as to maintain privacy.

Alok Gupta, director of Unistal Systems said, “Laptop thefts and loss are on an incessant rise, and have led to serious damages for professionals and corporates. According to credible industry sources, 97% of stolen computers are never recovered and 57% corporate crimes are linked to them...all the more reason for corporates and professionals to be proactive and adopt preventive measures like Locate Laptop."

Mr. Gupta further stated that ‘Locate Laptop’ software could be great help in recovering the stolen machines.

In order to track the thief, Users have to install Locate Laptop on their computers where it resides and operates in stealth mode.

They may login to their web-based personal tracking and monitoring page through www.locatelaptop.com to view and trace where their laptop has been accessed from.

Locate Laptop is available at all Unistal's authorised channel partners at reasonable price of Rs 3,000 ($55) per licence. It can also be bought online at http://www.locatelaptop.com.

Incase the laptop is not traceable; Unistal will pay five times the cost of Locate Laptop software to its customer.
