In many cases, particularly in business use, the data on the computer is more valuable than the computer itself. Whether you're mistrustful of your co-workers or concerned about corporate espionage, it's better to be safe than sorry, even in the office. Password protect your data, using the Password Security Control Panel (pre-OS9) or the Apple File Security encryption application (OS9+).

Be SURE to keep track of your password(s) … but don't do it on your computer!
