Re: RE: Laptop security

The only problem with this, is that if you require a user to replace an expensive asset. You will lose not only the asset (as it's difficult to force payment), but likely the employee as well. In almost all cases, the value of possible sensitive data, and the value of the employee outweighs the value of the hardware by a huge amount. If this is not the case, then the asset should never have been issued in the first place.
