Description: The QR Code token works by encoding a URL as a QR code. When the QR code is scanned and the URL is loaded, the token sends an alert.
A few ideas for use include: putting the code on containers in secure locations; on your desk; or underneath your phone battery when crossing international borders.
Step 1:
Log in to your Console.
Step 2:
Select the Canarytokens tile.
Step 3:
Select the "QR Code" token from the list.
Step 4:
Over time, if you are using tokens correctly, you will deploy thousands of them all over the place. Make sure that your Reminder is as descriptive as possible, and we will remind the future you of where the token was dropped. Nothing sucks more than having a token fire an alert that reads “test" - and not knowing where you placed it.
Note: we chose "QR Code printed and stuck on Cape Town Server Room Door" as the reminder
Step 5:
Download, copy or print the token and place it in its intended location.
Alert:
An alert is triggered when the QR Code is scanned.
You're done! ;-)
