A 007 gadget, on a MacGyver budget…
So you find yourself sitting at your computer, pondering what new case mod to come up with next… Unfortunately, you’re already maxed out of 4 pin power connectors to keep stringing neon tubes, and you’ve got enough case fans to produce gale-force winds. So where do you go next?
Well, with all the talk lately about computer information falling into the wrong hands & identity theft skyrocketing, it’s only natural that consumers will start to look for new ways to secure their information. Here’s where the XYLOC steps in! For just-under $35, you can score yourself a very-cool and unique security option for your PC.
The XYLOC Computer Security System from Ensure Technologies is a sleek USB powered proximity sensor with an RF key-card or “badge”. Once you have your XYLOC software installed, you can easily configure the device to lock once you walk a predefined distance away from your system, or once the computer hasn’t recognized your badge in-range in a set amount of time. The software also supports multiple users/keycards, so you do have the option to set your system up to log in a specific user associated with that badge automatically as they sit down at the desk. On the flip-side, you can also associate your keycard with multiple receivers (On sale @ $4.99) on different systems/networks.
