Beware of laptop thieves

If you’re always bringing your laptop with you, for work or whatever purpose it is, then be sure to guard it from thieves. I’ve seen a news video about a guy in a restaurant who placed his laptop bag on the floor while dining with a friend. It was just beside his feet and too bad he was so engrossed in his conversation with his friend that he was unaware of the guy who sat at the table beside them. The culprit just pulled the laptop bag’s handle little by little as he let the bag slide towards him, he opened the zipper and took out the laptop, hurriedly put it inside his bag and walked away. Ugh. You can just imagine the reaction of the laptop owner upon seeing his bag fully opened and empty!

I know it hurts to lose something valuable, especially one’s laptop. And I mean not just the cost of it, but the precious data inside. How can they ever be recovered? And what if those data contained private information such as passwords, personal details and such? Fortunately, there are available options for securing files by backing them up, not only on hard disks and CDs or DVDs but virtually in the cloud. Yes, I’m talking about online backup. Nowadays, businesses and individuals turn to online backup to secure their precious data in a reliable storage location away from laptop thieves and accidents.
