Abstract

An anti-theft system (40) for consumer equipment has a detector (10) for detecting theft by detecting disconnection of the consumer equipment from a network for power supply or for information transfer. This is used to cause a stolen status indication (20, 340) on the consumer equipment. The indication can be a display or RF transmission, and is persistent to deter possession of the equipment, but being removable by a secure reset process(100). This indication makes it riskier for a thief to possess stolen equipment that shows its stolen state, even when switched off, and even after lengthy storage. It is also harder to sell the stolen goods and hence it can deter theft. Similar principles can be applied to indicate on rented or shared equipment, a status of the equipment including a current user.
