Laptop safes and car safes are fast becoming a necessity in the fight to protect against identity theft. Recent studies show that even though consumers are becoming more aware of how to protect themselves from online identity theft and fraud, offline theft is still the biggest source of data and personal information loss in America. Anywhere from 600,000 to 1.5 million laptops are stolen or lost each year in the United States, according to law-enforcement and private estimates. The FBI reports that 97% of these stolen laptops are never recovered. Improvements in technology make it easier for people to carry large amounts of key data on not only their laptops but other mobile devices such as thumb drives, PDA's and portable hard drives. Some of this information can include Social Security numbers, confidential business information or even bank account information. With this laptop and identity theft epidemic, keeping that information safe should be recognized as top priority for everyone that owns a laptop computer.

Car safes and laptop safes can offer invaluable security to help prevent the theft of this personal information. These safes are available in a range of sizes to suit your needs and most are constructed of heavy gauge steel. Some can be bolted to floors and come with additional options of steel cable which can be attached to spare wheel brackets, seat brackets or if used in a room such as a dorm room, attached structural components. Utilizing these cable attachments can make it very easy to transfer the car safe from one vehicle to another, or from home to the office, without having to remove bolts. Electronic combination locks can eliminate the need to have to carry around additional keys.

Thieves only need a few minutes to enter into a vehicle in what is known by law enforcement as "Smash and Grab". Placing your valuables in the trunk of your car out of sight does little to deter determined thieves who will often target employment vehicles. In some cases they will pierce the door skin to enable them to unlock a vehicle without setting off the alarm. Once they have gained access, it is easy for them to open trunks through the back seats. Damage to the cars can be very extensive in a short period of time. When these thieves are confronted with a securely fitted car safe, most will look elsewhere.

Similarly, the "Smash and Grab" technique is often used in home burglaries as well. Thieves know that they have a window of opportunity to make a fast grab at personal property even if the home is equipped with a burglar alarm. With identity theft growing at alarming rates, locking your laptop in a home safe or laptop safe is one of the best methods to protect your personal information.
