The powers that be have asked me to research what it would take to deliver a poison pill that would render the targeted device un-bootable. I’m not worried about the drive being slaved as we have an encryption solution in place that will prevent that. We’re not using pre-boot authentication or two factor with our encryption software and some of our users have been known to post their user id / password on the device… Do any of you know of a command I can deliver through bigfix that will kill the OS? We have internet facing relays that have seen stolen devices checkin so the though would be to target a device with a poison pill once it’s confirmed stolen or lost.
I think the above sufficiently adds computer recovery to BigFix/TEM. I’d like to be able to query the location of the device and other Prey reporting and have that go directly to a BigFix/TEM analysis. This should be possible, especially since it is open source.
