Hardware theft inside of an office's four walls is a surprisingly common occurrence. Unauthorized visitors can simply walk away with notebooks and thin clients if the timing is right. HP can help you secure your most vulnerable hardware.
| HP offers support for Kensington Slimline Security Locks on our entire line of business notebook PCs to keep your notebook and its peripherals from walking away. These locks are industry standard so you can purchase a new lock with your notebook, utilize locks you may already have, and quickly and easily find replacement locks when you need them. |
Remember that you need to protect not only your notebook, but also its peripherals, like a multibay optical drive, a port replicator, or a dock. Select HP business notebook PCs make this as easy as a lock and click with built-in features that you get right out of the box.

HP offers a two-pronged approach to reducing the theft of thin clients:
- Use Kensington Security Cables to physically secure a thin client to a desk or table. Mounting brackets also allow you to attach a thin client directly to a desk or table.
- Integrate thin clients with HP servers in your secure data center so the expensive computer components and key data are safe in one location. The thin client becomes less expensive to replace because the expensive components and irreplaceable data are on the server. Stolen thin clients become useless to thieves because the clients cannot run without their integrated servers.
Beginning in December, 2004, HP Compaq t5700 Thin Clients will be pre-loaded with Sygate Security Agent 4.0 for Microsoft Windows® XP Embedded. This solution provides an application-centric firewall, application-based intrusion prevention engine, and enhanced virus protection in server-based computing environments. Learn more about this computing model and its security benefits in the Is server-based computing right for you? white paper.

Desktops and workstations are a substantial investment and you want to protect them. HP makes it easy with a collection of optional security solutions to help protect your investment:
- A solenoid hood lock that eliminates the need for a physical key by making the chassis lockable through a password. You can also lock and unlock the chassis remotely over the network. The lock attaches to your system and acts as a cover lock. This locking solution is only available from HP on select desktops and workstations.
- Support for Kensington locks. Use industry-standard locks to tether systems to a desk so they won't find their way out of your offices and into the hands of thieves.
- A PC chassis lock to physically lock a chassis cover as well as the keyboard and mouse cables with a key.
- A rear port controller that clips into the back of a computer to secure input devices and prevent the removal or addition of cables on the back.
- An integrated work center that not only saves space by integrating the monitor and the PC, but also works with a standard Kensington lock to secure both the monitor and PC at once.
- A wall-mounting bracket that you can use to mount a system to a wall or under a desk to reduce risk of theft and keep the system out of sight.
