Sentry software secures your computer in your absence by locking it down and providing a message-taking service for visitors. The fully adjustable software can be installed on any PC, whether on or off your network.
One of the most useful features of Sentry is that you can customize your screen while it is running, and even use your favorite screen savers within the program. Sentry can launch from a system tray icon, a global hotkey, or after your computer has been idle for a certain amount of time. This means that no matter how you typically access your computer, Sentry can work for you.
If you need to use a public workstation, Sentry2Go is the perfect solution. This feature allows you to copy the program to removable media such as a floppy disk, USB flash drive, or CD-rom. With Sentry2Go, you can quickly lock down any public workstation you may be using for added security.
Sentry is ideal for anyone who may need to leave their system unexpectedly and does not want co-workers to snoop around in their files. This software is ideal for use in workplaces or even at home if you have children who may want to mess with your computer without permission. Overall, Sentry is a great software that is easy to use and can help you stay secure when you're not around.
