caught on camera
program that when someone mistypes, or logs into computer the built it camera will take a quick picture | |
So I often have the problem of my friends and family
guessing my password then logging on my computer, using
it, logging out, and I come back hours later often
wondering "hmmmm who logged on last?" now for me at
least it would be a pain if the computer just told you what
time or where you logged
in last, I will never be able to
guess if it was me that logged in at that specific time. (at
least in most circumstances) so why not when you log on if
you have a web cam set up with your laptop, desktop, ect.
the computer will take a quick snapshot of the user facing
the screen and save the picture, then next time you log
onto your computer it will show a little pop up in the
corner of the picture taken from the last login, maybe
archiving them if the user wishes, now of course you could
turn this feature off if you so felt the need.
1. user correctly types in password
2. after computer finishes loading desktop ect. webcam
turns on and snaps a photo of current user.
3. user loggs of
....
.... 9 hours later
4. new user logs into computer and is shown the picture
that was taken earlier.
now this would work very well with any laptop, first off
they are always right where other people can get at them
so they are a big target, and now basically all laptops have
some type of camera in them. Now say the person logging
in blocks the camera/unplugs the camera/ect. then when
you look at the last login picture you will at least know it
is time to pick a better password

You need to decide whether you want to prevent those people from using the computer or not. All of your "security" measures you choose are dependent on your intentions there.... simply choosing a well constructed password in the first place should give you peace of mind. |
|

In fact, [21 Q], that might be a good way to remember them fondly.... Ah, the good times we had during the jjy776$$# era... |

[FT] 2.7 requires not the account-holder's, but the
*administrator's* password for the email server (plus a fairly
expert knowlege of how the server's configured -- yeah
security, obscurity, yadda, yadda). |

[21_Quest] Either you have strong passwords or ... the
women you lived with weren't actually interested in hacking
into your computer. Is it possible they were more into *you*
? |
|
|
How about you just pick a password that's not easy to guess? |
|
|
[mp] if somebody's guessed the account password, they shouldn't have any problem with the... oh, I see... well "delete e-mail" then I suppose. |
|
|
//How about you pick a password that's not easy to guess?// You're not from around here, are you :D |
|
|
Actually just pick any two persistent (real)desktop items as a password: "grecian urn 144 kilovolt taser" or something like that. (Your desk top may vary) |
|
|
though if you want to get technical, just set Autologin to On and Guest as the autologin account. (don't look at me though: I autologin to root, the occasional total buggerup is less hassle then constantly having to fiddle with permissions) |
|
|
I hope you spiked the wallet with (outrageously fake) incriminating items just for fun. |

[FlyingToaster]//I autologin to root// Awe-inspiring
machismo. |
|
|
[21_Quest] I stand corrected. They were *not* that into you. |
|
|
//What's a kilovolt taser?// low end model... I actually do have a (faux) Grecian urn on my desk though. |
|
|
//Awe-inspiring machismo// nah: I just don't see the point. |
