(ARA) – Many people will be traveling this holiday season to visit family and friends and will bring their expensive laptops along on the trip. Most of these travelers will not have considered that thousands of laptops are stolen from airports every week. Thieves are ready to capitalize on the increase in air travel during the holidays and the chaos of the holiday season.
“With the busy holiday season upon us, people will be taking to the road with their laptops in tow,” says John Livingston, chairman and chief executive officer of Absolute Software, a firm specializing in computer theft recovery, data protection and IT asset management. “Unfortunately, many of these people will fall victim to laptop loss or theft. On top of the financial cost, the potential data loss, security issues and identity theft associated with a missing computer can seriously worsen the situation — and have far-reaching consequences for individuals and companies alike.”
