When travelling, it’s important to keep your devices with you at all times. This includes your laptop, smartphone, tablet and any other devices that contain sensitive information. If possible, keep them in a carry-on bag or on your person rather than checked luggage.
Don’t leave your devices unattended in public places, and be especially careful in crowded areas like airports and coffee shops. If you must leave your device behind, make sure it’s in a secure location where it can’t be tampered with or stolen. Most hotels have a safe that is usually large enough to accommodate most laptops. If you are renting an apartment, be sure to keep your mobile devices out of plain view.
