6. Your logo here 275 x 100 max © JAMF Software, LLC Objective 1: Legal issues in K-12 • Powerful tracking software is frowned upon • Talk with an admin before deploying • Have a police report before you activate Lets get the boring stuff out of the way first
7. Your logo here 275 x 100 max © JAMF Software, LLC How Westside handles the legal issues • The prey.pkg is copied to every computer • Anyone with Jamf access can activate Prey • Only 3 people have access to reports
8. Your logo here 275 x 100 max © JAMF Software, LLC Objective 2: Recovery issues • Non-theft computer losses • Network connectivity • Stolen recovery issues
9. Your logo here 275 x 100 max © JAMF Software, LLC Non-theft recovery issues • Student lost computer somewhere • Student refusing to turn in ≠ theft in many states
10. Your logo here 275 x 100 max © JAMF Software, LLC Max image dimensions No Internet connection No internet connection means no Prey, so if the computer was stolen it has to connect to a network to activate.
11. Your logo here 275 x 100 max © JAMF Software, LLC Stolen computer recovery issues One of the biggest issues we see at Westside, once we have the location of the computer, is getting the police to act.
12. Your logo here 275 x 100 max © JAMF Software, LLC Stolen computer recovery tips • Have SRO (School Resource Officer) handle it • If no SRO, verify who has jurisdiction (police, sheriff, state patrol etc…) • If no SRO, talk with police beforehand

Your logo here 275 x 100 max © JAMF Software, LLC How to build a config profile around Prey • First, make a smart group for stolen computers and add it to the exclusions for your normal configuration profile • Restrict apps from running • Restrict utilities from running (terminal) • Allow the use of camera for Prey • Set password required to 8 hours
