If you store valuable informaon on your Computer including passwords and logins for personal accounts etc. you may want
to enhance the security of your Computer in case it is stolen or lost. This includes enforcing the log in with your windows
account and a PIN.
Erasing your personal data
If you sell your Computer on, or discard it you should erase the data in memory, before you do so. This securely erases your
data so that it cannot be recovered. Please note that simply returning your Computer to factory sengs is not a reliable
way of erasing your personal data (unless you have rst encrypted your data).
Encrypng your data
Sign in to Windows with an administrator account. Select the Start buon, then select Sengs > Update & Security > Device
encrypon. If device encrypon is turned o, select Turn on.
If device encrypon is not available on your device, follow these steps to turn on standard BitLocker encrypon instead:
Sign in to your Windows device with an administrator account. In the search box on the taskbar, type Manage BitLocker and
then select it from the list of results. Select Turn on BitLocker and then follow the instrucons. (If BitLocker is turned on and
you want to turn it o, select Turn o BitLocker.)
