Adding Security
You can add elements to your server to help to protect the server itself from theft
and tampering, and to help to protect the data and programs stored in the server
from unauthorized access and use.
Installing a U-Bolt and Security Cable

– Threaded nuts that fit the U-bolt
– A security cable
– A lock, such as a combination lock or padlock
