Your Mac can already stop unwanted access out of the box, but sometimes it is desirable to know when someone tries to circumvent these measures. This is where Watchmac comes into play:
Watchmac monitors your Mac for possible infringements. For instance, when someone tries to unlock your screensaver but fails to enter the correct password, Watchmac will record this event and can even take pictures using the built-in (or an externally connected iSight).
Watchmac is equipped with a full array of versatile sensors detecting all kinds of unauthorized use of your Mac. These sensors leverage the powerful technologies built into Apple’s latest and greatest products – but Watchmac also works on any older Mac running Leopard.
Watchmac notices when someone moves your MacBook, PowerBook or iBook, Watchmac will detect this as well.
Or when someone removes the battery from your MacBook, PowerBook or iBook computer or even when someone unpluggs the power cord – this can be used to stop intruders on Macs that aren’t equipped with a hardware motion sensor!
Besides all this advanced detection technology, Watchmac will also help you get wise to intruders attemping to guess your password at the lock screen. (See below for requirements.)
If that isn’t enough, Watchmac can also alert you at any failed authentication attempt. This should have you covered against most any intrusion attempt.
