Recovery of Stolen Laptop While Traveling? Possible
with LoJack for Laptops
PC World just put together a series of tips for how to "Keep your laptop safe and secure
while you travel." Our report earlier this year shows that travel-related locations make up
a large proportion of our Top Theft Locations: hotels, cars, transit, dining, airports, and
malls. Since you're likely taking several devices on vacation - laptops, e-readers,
tablets, smartphones - you'll want to guard these devices as best you can.
PC World's list of laptop security tips include tips to prevent theft as well as to keep your
laptop from coming to harm (like breaking!):
• Keep it padded in a bag built for laptops (although discreet bags that don't
scream laptop inside! are the best)
• Turn it off especially when in the padded bag, to prevent overheating.
Hibernating is not the same thing.
• Keep it hidden and in your physical possession (not under a seat or in another
seat).
• Protect it, just in case with LoJack for Laptops, since "in spite of your best
efforts, you laptop [can] still wind up missing; you might be able to recover it—
provided you installed a program such as LoJack before you hit the road."
• Back it up and lock it down
• Beware public use, as it applies to both Wi-Fi and snooping
• Know what you have with accurate details of your device stored in multiple safe
locations
Losing your laptop while traveling can be a pain - especially if it leads to identity theft. In
addition to the above tips, read on for more Hotel Laptop Security Tips and Airport
Laptop Security Tips.
Since no amount of precaution can ever prevent all crimes, as noted by PC World, we
recommend you protect your laptop using LoJack for Laptops. Only LoJack for Laptops
has a dedicated Theft Recovery Team that works to find and recover your stolen laptop,
no matter where in the world you are or where it may end up. With our remote lock and

theft. Learn more here.
