The Mac-Locking Sesame 2

Print

Atama presents a simple means for customers to ensure their Macs are safe from prying eyes and hands-- the Sesame 2, a key fob that, once paired with the Mac, automatically locks the PC when the user walks away from it.

Sesame 2The Sesame 2 is a wireless sensor small and light (10g) enough to attach to a keychain or keep in a pocket. It pairs with OS X machines via Bluetooth 4.0 and companion Sesame app, and handles a number of security features, such as the aforementioned automatic locking and optional 2-factor authentication demanding the use of both Sesame 2 and a password.

Customers can set the locking distance to either "near" or "far", with the "near" distance ranging around 6-8m.

The Sesame app also allows further customisation via Apple Script-- meaning users can also set various distance-based triggers, such as muting volume, pausing media players and setting Skype or Messenger to away status.

The Sesame 2 is available now. A PC-compatible version is reportedly in the works.
