Shared office - How to protect my PC and files?

[simonm]

Hi all

 

Im moving to a shared office space and i obviously want to protect my files. Does anyone have any tips on what i should do? I will obviously lock my pc when i leave the office for the day but not sure what else to think of? I have 4 hard drives in my PC so is there a way to lock them also somehow?

Is there anything else i should be thinking of?

 

Cheers

Here's a thread I started awhile back - Yikes! 6 years!

I saw a 117 decibel computer alarm for sale online. - something to just scare someone away.

Think of it this way, all of the physical security won't help your files once you are on their network. If someone is going to steal anything from you, which is unlikely, they'll do it over the network and you'd never even know.

 

Most shared work spaces, people are respective of other's property. If that is not the case, I would find another one to work at or get a laptop.
