These days, everybody should be security conscious. You should always run anti-virus software, use encryption on your personal information, and run a firewall to protect yourself from the rest of the Internet.

With these precautions in place, you could feel your system is secure, but is it? Not completely. You need to think about the computers users, those people who are behind the firewall, with physical access to your system. What you need is a "physical access" firewall to control access between your users and your computer...(of course, I just made that up, so I am pretty sure one does not exist...).

Using The Lock, you can control who has access , when they have access, what kind of access they have, and how they can use it.

Why do I need The Lock? Because a firewall won't stop them when they are sitting at your keyboard.
