NU12 # 12 Laptop Protection by Albert Bryan Abelido installation of GPS tracker

In the past months, there have been a lot of reported cases of robbery where laptop is among those that's being taken. These normally happens when commuting in an FX or a jeepney especially during unholy hours where employees from BPO companies normally go home. Laptop is one of the valuable asset of a company since most of them contains sensitive confidential information which competing companies might be interested on.

I think one way to pinpoint and trace the laptop is to have a GPS in it. It will only be activated when there's  a reported theft incident so that the company's security could trace it spot on. It will also signal for GPS monitoring if there will be several attempts in logging incorrect password. Also, once the GPS monitoring is on, all files will be automatically password-protected so no can access it.

It could be expensive to install but I guess the related cost for confidential information is far more expensive as the business of the company is at stake.  4
