When your laptop gets stolen, you loose a lot more than your computer and the cost of the replacement; that is why it makes sense to take these simple steps to protect it.
1. Don’t let your computer out of your sight, even for a moment. Wi-Fi hot spots like coffee shops can be distracting and are prime hangouts for laptop thieves. Don’t leave it on a table to get a refill and don’t put it on the floor behind you.
2. Don’t leave in on the seat of your car. Hide it under the seat or in the trunk or you could end up with a stolen laptop and a broken car window.
3. Don’t leave it in your hotel room unless you’ve secured it with a laptop cable lock ($30 to $50 at most stores). If you don’t have a laptop cable lock, take it with you or ask hotel management to lock it up.
4. Write your laptop’s serial number down and store it safely. It will help the police recover your laptop if stolen.
5. Get a tracking device installed. Computrace or CyberAngel can be purchased for around $60 a year and will track your laptop’s location using a stealthy piece of tracking software if it is stolen. Many even offer a guarantee.
And finally, don’t forget to back up your file and keep a copy of the backup in a separate location away from your laptop (not in your laptop bag.) This won’t prevent your laptop from being stolen, but it will take a lot of stress off loosing it.
