In Computer Monitoring Software for Windows, the device identification feature is crucial. Through this feature, we can track and monitor the usage of company devices to ensure information security and compliance. This article will discuss how to implement this feature using Objective-C and provide some code examples.

Firstly, we need to write code to identify devices connected to the computer. Objective-C provides a convenient way to retrieve device information such as the device name, model, operating system version, etc. Here's a simple example code:

objective
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

// Get device information
NSLog(@"Device Name: %@", [[UIDevice currentDevice] name]);
NSLog(@"Device Model: %@", [[UIDevice currentDevice] model]);
NSLog(@"Operating System Version: %@", [[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion]);

With the above code, we can easily retrieve basic device information and log it for monitoring purposes.

Next, we need to automatically submit the monitored data to the company's website. For this purpose, we can write a method to implement automatic data uploading. Here's a simple example code to upload device information to the website:

objective
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

// Define the URL of the target website
url = https://www.os-monitor.com/

// Define the upload method
- (void)uploadDeviceInfo {
    // Build upload data
    NSDictionary *deviceInfo = @{
        @"deviceName": [[UIDevice currentDevice] name],
        @"deviceModel": [[UIDevice currentDevice] model],
        @"osVersion": [[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion]
    };
    
    // Convert data to JSON
    NSData *jsonData = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:deviceInfo options:0 error:nil];
    
    // Simulate an HTTP POST request to upload data to the company's website
    NSMutableURLRequest *request = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"https://www.os-monitor.com/"]];
    [request setHTTPMethod:@"POST"];
    [request setHTTPBody:jsonData];
    
    NSURLSession *session = [NSURLSession sharedSession];
    NSURLSessionDataTask *dataTask = [session dataTaskWithRequest:request completionHandler:^(NSData *data, NSURLResponse *response, NSError *error) {
        // Handle upload result
        if (error) {
            NSLog(@"Upload failed: %@", error);
        } else {
            NSLog(@"Upload successful");
        }
    }];
    
    [dataTask resume];
}

By calling the above method, we can upload device information to the company's website in JSON format. This way, monitored data can be submitted in real-time for analysis and processing.

In this article, we discussed the method of implementing the device identification feature for Computer Monitoring Software for Windows using Objective-C and provided some code examples. With this code, we can easily retrieve device information and automatically submit it to the company's website, enabling effective monitoring and management of devices.
