Second device left outside the control inventory

Detection

Phones, tablets, laptops, consoles, smart TVs, toys or watches are missing from the household review.

Fix (technical)

eSafety recommends setting controls on all internet-connected devices a child accesses; Saferinternet.at lists smartphones, tablets, laptops, desktops, consoles, smart toys and children’s watches. Create and review an inventory. [esafety-parental-controls; saferinternet-at-technical-controls]

Fix (relational)

Reward honest disclosure of a new device; do not make disclosure itself a punishable event.

Residual risk

No inventory guarantees visibility into every borrowed or public device.
