While not leaving your laptop in a hotel room is probably the best advice you could get, this is not practical as there are times when having it with you while going to nearby places would cause a lot of inconvenience. The next best thing to do is to have a unit with a hard drive you could easily remove. You could then bring the drive with you or lock it inside the hotel room safe. You should do the same thing for other removable media such as USB drives and SD cards. If your computer's hard drive may not be removed easily, then you could resort to simply locking up your laptop inside its computer case. It might also give you more peace of mind if you would leave any sensitive data in your home computer.
Nonetheless, security should not be a cause for worry nowadays when hotels are fully equipped with electronic safes where you could keep your valuables, as well as state-of-the-art security devices that monitor twenty-four hours the activities that occur inside its premises. These tips merely complement the security measures already in place in most accommodations and make you more vigilant in securing your electronic devices.
