| CubeByte laptop security lock fits all makes and models on the market |
|
A recent survey from Autosafe International found that in 56 laptops
there were as many as 37 different security slots proving there is no
such thing as a standard size. Autosafe cited changing lifestyles as
the reason why more laptops are being stolen than ever before.
Vulnerability is heightened by hot desking, working from trains,
planes, internet cafes and a whole host of other public places. Autosafe International has launched CubeByte™, a new security lock that will fit all makes and models on the market. The launch comes in the wake of new research that links laptop theft to over 50 per cent of corporate crimes. Unlike conventional security locks that may fit only certain models, CubeByte™ features a patented mechanism that automatically adjusts to the depth of the security slot within the laptop. In tests, CubeByte™ is the only product on the market which has been proven to fit 100 per cent of all laptops. Gordon Frewin, sales and marketing director of Autosafe explains, "We discovered that many laptop cables find themselves hidden away in desk draws because users can’t get them to fit their laptop. Instead of doing something about it, users seem content not to bother, yet recent research shows that laptop security is an issue businesses can no longer afford to ignore. ‘Duty of care’ attitudes towards company hardware seems to be fading fast." The CubeByte™ is designed to fit in the security slot positioned at the back of the laptop. With a twist of the key it simply locks in place. The high security cable can than be wrapped around a secure fixture, such as a desk, table or chair, enabling users to leave the laptop unmanned with the assurance that it can’t be moved. "Technologies exist to limit the damage once a laptop has been taken but it would cost a company far less in time and money if thefts could be avoided in the first place. Often the simplest safety measures are the most effective," said Frewin. CubeByte™ is the only customisable security lock currently on the market. Its unique protective housing and cable is the only design that can be produced in any colour or combination, allowing businesses to brand locks with their own corporate identity. CubeByte™ specifications: * Integrated torsion spring – automatically adjusts to the depth of the security slot * High security cable – 1.8m high tensile twisted steel 5.5mm think, with protective PVC casing * Anti-tamper construction (4 torsion bars re-enforce the security within) * High security un-pickable disc tumbler lock * Rubber cushion to protect laptop * 20,000 different key codes – adding to security * Customisable protective housing and cable |
