Securing your computer

Your computer is a valuable investment that you need to take care of.

Learn how to protect and take care of your computer.

Security features include hardware and software locks — a security

notch and passwords.

Using a computer security lock

A security keylock notch located on the rear of the computer lets you

connect a Kensington-compatible computer security lock.

Wrap a computer security lock cable around an immovable object such

as a table or locked drawer handle. Insert the lock into the notch and

turn the key to secure the lock. Some keyless models are also available.

Using passwords

Passwords protect your computer from unauthorized access. Setting

these passwords creates several different levels of protection for your

computer and data:

• Supervisor Password prevents unauthorized entry into the BIOS

Utility. Once set, you must key-in this password to gain access to

the BIOS Utility. See

“BIOS Utility” on page 45.

• User Password secures your computer against unauthorized use.

Combine the use of this password with password checkpoints on

boot-up and resume from hibernation for maximum security.
