About laptop theft

With increasing portability of computers and laptops, computer theft is a growing problem. We take our laptops everywhere we go, and thieves know that. Computer theft is a multifactorial problem.

The costs and threats

The costs of computer theft are often underestimated: it's more than the hardware alone. Losing a computer easily costs up to €5000.

Losing computers often causes data loss and possibly data disclosure if the disk is not encrypted. This poses a security threat to companies and their customers.

In addition, computer theft is a major annoyance to the owner of the computer. It often takes up to a week to be up and running again.

The VirtuaLock Philosophy

Our philosophy is that theft should be prevented before it occurs. The moment a thief leaves your building with one of your computers, the costs are made.
