Don’t Mess with a Laptop on ODS!

Have you ever wondered what you would do if your laptop was stolen? What if it contained sensitive information about your business or your personal life? Is it possible to track it down?

One of our clients found out the answers to those questions the hard way when a Howel teenager went on a burglary spree. In a three month period, the teen broke into cars throughout the township. Thankfully, he is now in jail, awaiting trial for a long list of crimes.

Our client, who will remain nameless, may have felt unlucky when his laptop was stolen from his car, but it was actually that move that landed the teen in the Monmouth County Jail in Freehold Township. Soon after pilfering the laptop, the foolish teen decided to use his newly acquired piece of technology.

What he didn’t know is that our client had his laptop on AMRCON’s ODS!

Our client called us, and we were able to track down the IP address in no time and lead Colts Neck police to the arrest.

So far, police have charged the teen with 19 counts of burglary, 14 counts of theft, two counts of credit card theft, three counts of possession and dealing in stolen property, possession of forged prescriptions, possession of burglary tools, possession of a controlled dangerous substance, and possession of drug paraphernalia.

That’s a long list! And it’s only expected to grow.

We’re glad we were able to lend police a hand in capturing this troubled teen and that we could help a client in need so quickly. That’s the true benefit of on-demand support—

They have found ways to run our Information Technology at a much faster and more cost-effective way than previous managed services firms. In the financial services industry, everything is computer-based, so IT is a critical part of what we do on a daily basis to accommodate our customers and keep them happy. With AMRCON, we have had no downtime."

"AMRCON supports ten windows-based services for Proctor and Gamble’s Fragrance Division. I am completely impressed with AMRCON’s knowledge and ability to monitor the things that are important. We’ve been working with AMRCON for nearly two years, and in that time AMRCON resolved a rampant virus that attacked our servers. They were able to patch the servers and stabilize our network, all without coming on-site. AMRCON has also saved P&G added expense by using their out-of-the-box strategic solutions to various network problems. They always go above and beyond to make sure our systems are running properly."

"I first met Dee about five years ago when a friend referred him to help solve our many network problems. Back then, we used to have crashes and various computer disasters every couple of months. But as an attorney it is imperative that I have constant access to my clients’ files. Dee came in, fixed the problems, and since then AMRCON has managed absolutely all of my company’s IT needs. The best part is we haven’t crashed once since AMRCON has been on the job."

"AMRCON makes certain that everything is working for my small business. I rely on their constant support and their back-up services. They also link everything together for me – the desktops in my offices and my home, BlackBerry, even my computer in Florida. I can go to one location and pick up where I left off. With AMRCON, their technology has given me the advantage of being able to complete with firms larger than mine."
