Lenovo ThinkCentre A57e - Manual (Page 47)

Chapter 5. Security features
To help prevent hardware theft and unauthorized access to your computer, several
security lock options are available. In addition to a physical lock, unauthorized use
of your computer can be prevented by a software lock that locks the keyboard
until a correct password is typed in.
Make sure that any security cables that you install do not interfere with other
computer cables.
Integrated cable lock
An integrated cable lock (sometimes referred to as the Kensington lock) can be
used to secure your computer to a desk, table, or other non-permanent fixture. The
cable lock attaches to a security slot at the rear of your computer and is operated
with a key. See Figure 34. The cable lock also locks the buttons used to open the
computer cover. This is the same type of lock used with many laptop computers.
You can order a security cable directly from Lenovo by searching on Kensington at:
