Locking Cable for Portables Gets Small

Kensington has supplied lock cables for securing your laptops and other hardware for years. The new cable is designed for ultrabooks, chromebooks, and other equipment that's easily stolen.


The new MiniSaver has been developed to address the increasing security needs of mobile-device users in the workplace. According to IDC, as many as 155 million smartphones and almost four million tablets will be leveraged for business purposes in 2014(1). Further underscoring BYOD demand, as many as 53 percent of information workers today use three or more devices(2).

Key features include:
    --  Cleat locking technology - featuring retracting "claws" which grab on to
        the internal sides of the security slot, the MiniSaver creates a strong
        connection between the device shell and the lock.
    --  Off-body lock - using a groundbreaking design, the MiniSaver moves the
        main lock housing away from the device for improved flexibility which
        prevents interference with surrounding ports and jacks used for other
        accessories.
    --  One-handed operation - A simple push-button action with a single hand
        can engage the lock securely inside the security slot.
    --  Cut-resistant cable - An engineered carbon steel and protective plastic
        sheath give the MiniSaver the cut-resistance and theft-resistance of
        much thicker cables while delivering easier mobility.
    --  Pivot and rotate cable - supporting a special hinge the MiniSaver
        creates great freedom of movement and eliminates awkward angles so that the key may be easily inserted.
