Tech Tip of the Week: Laptop security

From Kim Paré, IT Group:

In light of the thefts that have occurred in the Science Center in recent days, I would like to remind faculty and staff that according to the USNH System Access Control Policy and KSC Policies all laptops are required to be locked and secured when left unattended. Please use the lock we provided to you, or, if you cannot locate your lock, contact the HelpDesk at 358-2532 for a replacement. Be aware that there is no pool of funds to replace lost or stolen computers and therefore replacement costs belong to you, and/or your department, or School. It is important that we try to minimize these incidents by using the necessary security devices provided to you by the IT Group.
