So how did Lower Merion School District monitor their laptops?
In this article, Stryde Hax (no relation to your humble commentator) does a fine bit of detective work on the technology that Lower Merion School District MAY have used to “monitor” their laptops. I’m struck by just how little difference there is between “remote administration tools” and spyware. Like most things, I guess it all comes down to intent.
It will be interesting to see if the anti-virus vendors add this suite to their signature list. Most of the major AV vendors flag VNC as a possibly hostile program. Will this be next?
