Laptop safes can protect your personal information

Laptop safes are fast becoming a necessity in the fight to protect against identity theft and personal loss. Dorms and offices often have many people coming and going, and a laptop safe can protect your personal items and computer from unwelcome visitors. Honeywell laptop safe.jpg

Intel commissioned a study on the true cost of a lost or stolen laptop to an enterprise.

According to the Ponemon Institute, the average cost to a company losing a laptop is at nearly $50,000, with extreme cases nearing $1 million. Read more about this study here.

Laptop safes can offer invaluable security to help prevent the theft of personal information. Some can be bolted to floors, but if you’ll be living in a dorm room, you may want to look for a laptop safe with a steel cable to secure the safe to a bedpost or built-in desk. Utilizing these cable attachments can make it very easy to transfer the safe from your home to your office without having to remove bolts. Electronic combination locks can eliminate the need to have to carry around additional keys.

Check your laptop’s width and depth to make sure it will fit comfortably in the safe as some laptop safes won’t hold 17 inch laptops.

Hunting Season Safety Tips

Hunting season will soon be arriving and we want to make sure you have a fun and safe time. The National Riffle Association provides several basic gun safety rules to help keep you and your family safe.

The fundamental NRA rules for safe gun handling are:

ALWAYS keep the gun pointed in a safe direction. This is the primary rule of gun safety. A safe direction means that the gun is pointed so that even if it were to go off it would not cause injury or damage. The key to this rule is to control where the muzzle or front end of the barrel is pointed at all times. Common sense dictates the safest direction, depending on different circumstances.
ALWAYS keep your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot. When holding a gun, rest your finger on the trigger guard or along the side of the gun. Until you are actually ready to fire, do not touch the trigger.
ALWAYS keep the gun unloaded until ready to use. Whenever you pick up a gun, immediately engage the safety device if possible, and, if the gun has a magazine, remove it before opening the action and looking into the chamber(s) which should be clear of ammunition. If you do not know how to open the action or inspect the chamber(s), leave the gun alone and get help from someone who does.
