7-2 Caring for the Computer
Protecting the Computer
To safeguard the integrity of your computer data as well as the computer
itself, you can protect the computer in several ways as described in this
section.
Using the Password
The power-on password protects your computer against unauthorized
use. If the password is set, the prompt requesting for the password
appears on the screen whenever the computer is turned on.
The password is set via the SCU program. See “Security Menu” in
Chapter 5 for instructions.
Using the Cable Lock
You can use a Kensington-type cable lock to protect your computer
against theft. The cable lock is available in most computer stores.
To use the lock, loop the lock cable around a stationary object such as a
table. Insert the lock to the Kensington lock hole and turn the key to
secure the lock. Store the key in a safe place.
