Securing your computer
Your computer features hardware and software security solutions, in the form of a slot
for a Kensington lock and a password facility.
Security slot
A slot for a Kensington lock enables you to physically protect your computer from
theft. Use this feature as follows:
• Wrap a security lock cable around a heavy or immoveable object, such as a
drawer handle on a file cabinet, or a table leg.
• Insert the lock into the slot on the computer, turn it 90°, and then lock it in place.
Passwords
Passwords protect your computer from unauthorized access. When set, no one can
access the computer without entering the correct password.
There are three types of passwords you can set:
• Supervisor Password secures your computer against unauthorized entry to and
use of the BIOS Utility.
• User Password secures your computer against unauthorized use.
• Hard Disk Password protects your data by preventing unauthorized access to
your hard disk.
