from DSSResources.comStealing laptops from vehicles on the rise!SAVANNAH, Ga. and INDIANAPOLIS, July 20, 2004 -- On June 7th, 2004, a businesswoman in Savannah noticed that her car in her driveway had been broken into overnight and her business laptop computer stolen. Important information for many of her clients was stored on that computer, including state and local government employees. On November 8th, 2001, an insurance salesman in Logansport, IN found that his car had been broken into and his business laptop computer stolen. The sales information on that computer represented several weeks' worth of business, as well as confidential information about those clients. Fortunately, they both had companies that had a standard practice to protect all employees' mobile computers and critical client information with The CyberAngel Security Software. On June 22nd, 2004, the stolen computer in Savannah started sending covert alerts to The CyberAngel Security Monitoring Center, providing the location details from where that computer was being used. The thieves were moving frequently between 2 locations, and CSS, Inc. worked closely with local law enforcement authorities in Savannah to provide them with the location information to be able to secure search warrants for both premises. On the evening of July 9th, 2004, the stolen computer from Logansport, IN was used and sent covert alerts, indicating the computer was in rural Tennessee. CSS, Inc. worked with law enforcement authorities in both Logansport & Tennessee, and provided them with the information to be able to obtain a search warrant. Within days, both stolen computers were back in their rightful owners' hands, and all of the sensitive business information on those computers were secure and intact upon recovery. "After being gone for over 2 1/2 years, I had given up hope," said John Radtke of Logansport. "My thanks to CyberAngel! I am really glad to get my laptop back, as well as some information that I thought was lost forever." About CyberAngel(R) Security Solutions, Inc. CyberAngel Security Solutions, Inc.
