Need to protect devices and perimeters?

Control movements from warehouse to last mile

Worried about sensitive data from stolen POS tablets?

If a tablet crosses a store geofence, Prey can sound an alarm and lock the screen. If the theft persists, you can remotely factory reset devices, or kill the master boot removing access to crucial data.

Devices going missing between shifts and hubs?

Prey helps with accountability! Assign devices to associates, pickers and drivers with Loan manager. All your devices can be audited, Prey's location and audit logs register all the information you need.

Looking to protect travelling managers' laptops?

Handout encrypted laptops to your visiting sales reps, training pros and seasonal backup hires. Prey keeps your fleet secure with automated locks, and follows devices in transit with GPS and Wi-Fi location.

Shared devices, busy floors, constant turnover

Stop devices from walking out

Create geofences around each store. If a mobile, laptop or tablet leaves the building, Prey sounds an alarm, locks the screen and alerts loss prevention in real time.

Protect customer data at the register

Mobile devices hold payment and customer data. If one goes missing from the floor, wipe it remotely so data isn't exposed, keeping compliance.

Clear answers if devices go missing

When a store tablet or back-office laptop disappears, mark it as missing. Prey quietly collects location, nearby Wi-Fi networks and webcam photos of whoever is using it, ready for a police report or an internal investigation.

Protect data on traveling and temporary devices

District managers carry sales, inventory and payroll data between stores. Encrypt their laptops and wipe them remotely if one is lost or stolen. Check which loaner devices come back and wipe the ones that didn't, especially useful for seasonal hires.

of the retail journey

"The best feature is the ability to 'factory reset' a Windows PC. I have never been able to initiate the process for a client remotely before finding Prey."
"(Absolute) were unable to find the stolen devices... weeks spent trying to get the stolen device flagged as stolen."
"Adding location services (on Intune), it takes forever... With Prey, it is instantly and we also get the history of past check-in."

Questions retail IT teams ask

What happens if a tablet leaves the store?

Prey can sound an alarm, lock the screen and notify loss prevention as soon as the device crosses the store's geofence.

Does Prey help with PCI DSS?

Prey lets you wipe payment devices remotely when they go missing, which supports PCI DSS data protection. It doesn't make you compliant on its own.

Can we see which store a device belongs to?

Yes. Label devices by store, region or warehouse and filter the dashboard by any of them.

Can we lock devices that aren't returned after a shift?

Yes. Set a return time in the Loan manager, and Prey can lock overdue devices automatically. You can also lock devices manually at any time.

Which devices does Prey support?

Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS and Chromebooks.
