staples11 Staples Talks About Security and How to Easily Prevent Identity TheftHere at Chip Chick we constantly talk about Laptop cases and iPod accessories. Because we could never let our readers down on what next to dress their Nano in or USB that has the latest design on it. However when it comes to security many seem to be a little too lax. Sure some of us are savvy enough to buy firewalls and anti-virus programs for their computers (don’ t forget to update the definitions), while others go about never expecting to have their entire identity and credit stolen right under their nose. We were lucky enough to attend an event sponsored by Staples that focused on security in your home, work, and in public. Bill Stanton or better known as”Wild Bill” is a Security Consultant for NBC and a regular on the Today show, was the guest speaker at the event and he gave us all helpful tips that are not only technology related but just common sense. Bill goes by the 3 Ss – Shredding, Software, and Storage.

*Shredding is obvious – Staples had on display their newer 10 – Sheet Micro Cut Shredder which not only slices and dices your papers into dust but shreds Credit Cards, CDs, and DVDs as well.

*Software is your Anti-Virus/Firewall/Spyware programs that prevent those nasty trojans and intruders from coming into your computer.

*Storage means back-up, back-up, back-up your precious files on your computer as well as storing important documents away in a vault or lock-box.
