Hello.

I have a laptop that I would like to make secure (=against data steel, eg cookies) so I decided to post this post. Here is a list of suggestions what to do to secure a laptop and its data.

(eg lets have this discussion for ordinary laptop with Windows XP home)

1. FDE

2. XP Proff. offer some kind of encryption as well

3. BIOS password, not only for access to BIOS, but also for access to computer

4. disamble in BIOS booting from any other device than from harddisc, disable in BIOS use of USB

any other ones?

(set everywhere INTELLIGENT passwords)
