Abstract: A security control system secures electronic devices. The electronic devices communicate wirelessly with the security control system. The security control system can be used to define an authorized wireless communication area for the electronic devices. On a regular basis, the security control system checks the presence of the electronic devices within the authorized wireless communication area. If an electronic device is removed from wireless communication without a deconnection request, an alarm is sounded.
