Warning! - Protect Your Laptop from Theft

• Treat your laptop like cash. Never leave your laptop unguarded, even for just a minute.
• If you must leave your laptop in your car, make sure it's out of sight. Parked cars are a favored target of laptop thieves.
• Keep your passwords elsewhere. Don't store passwords in your laptop case — it's the equivalent of leaving keys in your car. Why make it easy for a thief to gain access to your personal or business information?
• Pay attention in airports. Keep your eye on your laptop during the entire security process since the crowds and confusion of airports create fertile ground for theft.
• Be careful in hotels. Try not to leave your laptop in your room. Use the hotel safe if possible.
