Laptops are used in a very wide range of environments and are therefore subject to many threats. These threats include damaging environmental conditions such as excessively high or low temperatures, as well as dust and moisture. Laptops can also be damaged in transit. In addition, laptops communicate with unknown IT systems or networks, particularly while on the move, which always poses a potential risk to a device. Here, malware can be transmitted or sensitive information can be copied (for example).
