No longer is the cost of buying computers restricted to the wealthy, almost every home has at least 1 PC while businesses are saturated with them.
The only problem is computer theft, with all of us doing more online shopping, our banking details are on there, so should anyone pinch your computer, they will have access to your bank account!
A sure way to prevent this is to house the computer, monitor and keyboard in a computer enclosure, this protects the computer hardware from dust, fluid and physical attacks (theft!)
The enclosure is a special steel case that is fully welded for maximum strength, with key bolt down locations, preventing the unit being picked up and taken away6 to be accessed at leisure.
The unit is split into 2 sections; the top unit stores the monitor and computer whilst the keyboard and mouse is in a rollout drawer below. This prevents unauthorized access to the computer without the key. They units are keyed different, meaning it is difficult accessing the keyboard without the key!
The computer and monitor is cooled by a special filtered fan unit and dependant on the application such as a frozen food factory, the unit can be heated or cooled by air conditioning.
Cable access is via rear IP68 cable grommets these are waterproof, these are ideal preventative measure to any fluid leak in to the enclosure. You can even wash the units down with high pressure water jets.
Computer enclosures are called all sorts of weird names, such as computer garages, PC enclosures and industrial computer enclosures, at the end of the day they all do the same job, protect computer hardware from potential hazardous areas or abuse.
In this day and age of computer crime, we all need to protect our identity, if we do not, someone will take care of it for us. Internet fraud hits 1 in 10 people in the UK every day, so this is huge! You need to do everything in your power to protect your personal details and any device that submits these details.
Visa International reported in 2008, that 8% of all transactions were internet frauds, this is why the major credit card dispute sections have tripled in size, as they have to pick up the pieces when something goes wrong. But you have to deal with the fallout too, this could mean you being kicked out of your rented flat or even your home or car repossessed.
You are not safe when you are in public areas, there have been cases were people have used computers in libraries any to have the account hacked, this is with the use of key stroke loggers, they just plug into the computer then plug the keyboard into the back of this device and when anyone uses the keyboard it remembers every key stroke! So you need to protect your computer and one of the easiest ways is to put the computer in a PC enclosure.
