Never worry about leaving your computer unlocked again.
Proximity Lock System is a Python CLI tool that automatically locks your system when your paired Bluetooth device (like your phone) goes out of range. It continuously monitors nearby devices, ensuring your computer stays secure when you step away.
By automating the lock process based on physical proximity rather than relying on user memory, the product eliminates the common security vulnerability of users forgetting to manually lock their systems when leaving their workstation.
The system provides passive, continuous proximity-based security by detecting when a trusted Bluetooth device (phone/smartwatch) leaves the vicinity, triggering automatic system lock to prevent unauthorized access in environments like offices or cafes.
The CLI tool provides a simple setup process (proximity-lock setup) and straightforward start command (proximity-lock start) that allows users to pair a Bluetooth device and begin monitoring with minimal technical overhead.
Proximity Lock System monitors paired Bluetooth devices in real-time and automatically locks the system when the device goes out of range, eliminating the need for manual locking and reducing security gaps when users leave their desk.
