The most sensational stories about data loss tend to involve a government or corporate road warrior losing a laptop full of sensitive data while out of the office. Those stories are perhaps extreme examples of carelessness, but data loss is a real problem and can happen in any number of ways. Laplink recently introduced PC Lock, an all-new utility that encrypts files on a computer or laptop and even remotely protects computers if they’re lost.
Laplink has been making PC utilities for decades, most notably for file transfer. In the early days of personal computers, the Laplink Cable was a popular tool for connecting two computers without a network connection. “We’ve provided data file transfer and other utilities in the PC realm for a long time, including some with built-in encryption,” says Neil Minetto, director of marketing at Laplink. “But this is our first stand-alone encryption tool, which meant we could take a fresh look at the user’s needs.”
