Which spyware tracks what children are doing on the computer, both online and offline?

• A. GPS Spyware
• B. Child-Monitoring Spyware
• C. Video Spyware
• D. Print Spyware

Answer: (B)

When you want to monitor a child’s activity on a computer, you look for software designed for parental control that records overall usage on the device. Child-Monitoring Spyware is the best fit because it is specifically built to track what the child does on the computer, including online activities and actions taken offline on the device, and to report that activity later. GPS Spyware focuses on location tracking, not general computer usage. Video Spyware would imply capturing video feeds, which isn’t the same as monitoring typical computer activity. Print Spyware would only monitor printing activity, which is too narrow.
