Would you leave your house without locking the front door?  An unlocked computer is like leaving your doors unlocked.  Remember, you are responsible for actions taken under your login!

Let's avoid pitfalls and consequences by playing smart... LOCK or LOGOFF!

Before leaving your computer, do one of the following (Windows workstations):

• Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete on your keyboard and then select "Lock Computer"

• Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete on your keyboard and then select "Log Off"

If you have a non-Windows computer, please contact your computer administrator for instructions on how to lock your workstation.
