Using security features
To deter unauthorized use of your computer, you can lock the cover and
keyboard.
Locking the cover
Your computer comes with a built-in padlock loop. You can use this loop
to lock the cover to your computer with a padlock.
Locking the keyboard
You can disable the keyboard so that others are unable to use it. If a
power-on password is set, the keyboard is locked when you turn on the
computer. You must type the correct password before the keyboard will
unlock. You can enable the power-on password feature with the
Configuration/Setup Utility program. See Chapter 4, “Using the
Configuration/Setup Utility program” on page 29.
Some operating systems have a keyboard and mouse lock-up feature.
Check the documentation that comes with your operating system for more
information.
Using a security U-bolt
With the optional security U-bolt and a steel cable, you can secure your
computer to a desk, table, or other fixture. This helps protect against theft.
For instructions on installing a security U-bolt, see “Installing a security
U-bolt” on page 80.
