Abstract

See full text

A target device is configured to communicatively connect to a common network and a mobile device. The mobile device includes a processor operable to determine that the mobile device is not within a proximity distance threshold to the target device as indicated by a lack of connectivity with the target device through a short-range wireless protocol. The processor is further operable to determine that both the mobile device and the target device are connected to the common network at a first time period, wherein the common network is designated as a safe zone for each of the target device and the mobile device. The processor is then operable to determine that at least one of the mobile device and the target device is not connected to the common network at a second time period after the first time period. An alert is produced via the mobile device as a result.
