Booklist - American Library Association:
"Considering that laptop computer theft is
on the rise, this practical guide is a valuable
resource to help computer owners protect their
equipment. After addressing theft rates,
replacement costs, resale value, and other
issues, the program uses voice-over narration
and various reenactments of robbery scenarios in
airports, offices, automobiles, and other locals
to show viewers how to avoid computer
theft. Ranging from familiar
smash-and-grab approaches to more subtle tactics
that involve accomplices who divert attention,
the scenarios help viewers understand how to
anticipate and thwart laptop thievery."
"This cautionary how-to is
recommended." - Jeff Dick

Information Security Magazine-
"Now You See It, Now You Don't: Preventing
Laptop Computer Theft" is a training video
that touches on the obvious and not-so-obvious
ways to prevent laptop theft. The 20-minute
video suggests some simple measures for
deterring a thief, including keeping your laptop
bag in front of you while using a pay phone or
sitting in an airport. The video points out
numerous laptop theft scams, usually involving
two individuals: In one scenario, someone will
ask for directions, distracting the laptop
owner, while the other person snatches the bag.
Another scam happens at an airport, where
thieves hold up the security checkpoint line
after someone puts his or her laptop on the
conveyor belt. The video recommends other theft
deterrents, including physical locks, motion
sensors and software that encrypts data in the
event the laptop is lost or stolen. While most
of the lessons are pure common sense, the video
has many useful tips.
An
organization looking to educate its employees
may think nothing of the price tag, figuring
that an instructional video is a lot less than
replacing a $3,000 laptop, not to mention the
missing data.
The
video is 20 minutes of solid information (no
Fluff) and comes with a trainer's guide and
test. Price $149.95. To order see the
product order form at the end of the products
