AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 GIGS: WHAT REALLY HAPPENS WHEN A DEVICE IS STOLEN?

RICHARD HENDERSON MARCH 14 // TRACK 1 // 13:00 TO 14:00 Company-owned electronics that show up on the other side of the world. Stolen laptops that surface a year or two later. Criminal activi- ty on corporate devices. Law Enforcement unwillingness to help...what really happens to your laptop when it’s stolen? Most people believe that when their laptop gets stolen out of their car, or swiped off the table at your local coffee shop, it ends up pawned off for a paltry sum or sold on Craigslist. Once the device is wiped clean, hard drive replaced, it’s gone forever. Certainly, that’s true in many cas- es, but what about the devices that didn’t get sold off for a quick buck? This talk will share some of our most interesting theft cases in the past year: tales of creative device theft from our Investigations team that rival what you might see on TV. libero eu, volutpat metus.
