Patent attributes
Aspects of the disclosure relate to an automated monitoring of proximate devices. A computing platform may cause a reporting device to detect a target device in a local network, retrieve network data associated with the target device, and send, to an intermediate server, the network data. The computing platform may send, to the intermediate server, a query. The intermediate server may send the network data in response to the query. Based on the network data, the computing platform may determine an amount of time that has elapsed since network activity was previously detected for the target device, and based on a determination that the amount of time exceeds a predetermined time threshold, the computing platform may generate an alert notification indicating that the target device may need to be traced. Subsequently, the alert notification may be sent to the reporting device.
