Thinking of taking your laptop on the road?
A laptop computer defines convenience and mobility.It enables you to work from home,a hotel room,a conference hall,or a coffee shop.Maybe you've taken steps to secure thedata on your laptop.You've installed a firewall.You update your antivirus software.You protect your information with a strong password.You encrypt your data, and you're too smart to fall for those emails that ask for your personal information.But what about the laptop itself?A minor distraction is all it takes for your laptop to vanish.If it does.you may lose more than an expensive piece of hardware.The fact is,if your data protections aren't up to par,that sensitive and valuable information in your laptop may be a magnet for an identity thief.Chances are you've heard stories about stolen laptops on the news or from friends and colleagues.No one thinks their laptop will be stolen at least not until they find the trunk of their car broken into,notice that their laptop isn't waiting at the other side of airport security,or get a refill at the local java joint only to turn around and find their laptop gone.
