A security apparatus secures a laptop or other secured object to a display surface. The security apparatus includes a pair of spaced apart slats for receiving a display of the laptop, or other upwardly extending portion of a secured object. The slats are mounted at each of their ends to a restraint assembly. The restrain assemblies mount to the display surface with one of the slats positioned above the laptop keyboard, or other horizontally extending portion of the secured object. When the security apparatus is attached to the display surface, all fasteners to secure the security apparatus to the display surface are inaccessible from above the display surface.

Provided are a fixing device and a fixing bracket having the same. The fixing device includes a base body, a limiting device, and a first control member. The base body has a support surface. The limiting device includes a limiting member arranged on a side of the support surface and movable along a normal direction of the support surface to fix a portable device to the support surface. The first control member is arranged on a side of the support surface and configured to control movement of the limiting member. When the portable device is fixed to the support surface, the portable device covers at least part of the first control member.

Security systems and methods are provided. In one example, a security system includes at least one lock configured to protect one or more items from theft from a fixture, and a strike plate configured to be mounted to the fixture. The lock comprises a plunger pin configured to be moved between a locked state when in engagement with the strike plate and an unlocked state when disengaged from the strike plate, and the lock comprises a cam configured to move the plunger pin between the locked state and the unlocked state. The lock is configured to be moved between a latched position and an unlatched position while the lock is in the unlocked state, the fixture configured to be accessed in the unlatched position, and the strike plate is configured to move relative to the lock to align the lock with the strike plate when the lock is moved from the unlatched position to the latched position.

Security systems and methods are provided. In one example, a security system includes at least one lock configured to protect one or more items from theft from the fixture, wherein the lock comprises a plunger pin configured to be moved between a latched position and an unlatched position, and wherein the fixture is configured to be accessed in the unlatched position. The lock comprises a cam configured to be moved between a locked state and an unlocked state for allowing the plunger pin to be moved between the latched position and the unlatched position when in the unlocked state, wherein the cam is configured to be moved in response to receiving a wireless authorization signal to transition the lock between the locked state and the unlocked state.

An attachment device (1) for an apparatus (10), which apparatus (10) comprises a fixed cable (2) with a connector (12) at its free end. The attachment device (1) comprises a first plate member (3) and a second plate member (4), which by means of a hinge member (7) are rotatably connected to each other about a hinge axis (5). Hereby, they can rotate between a closed position, in which the plate members (3, 4) lie against each other, and in which the attachment device (1) defines a through-going opening (6) for the cable (2), and an open position, in which the cable (2) can be removed from the attachment device (1). The first plate member (3) comprises a first locking slot (83) and the second plate member (4) comprises a second locking slot (84). The first and second locking slots (83, 84) are aligned in the closed position, whereby a locking member (13) can be inserted through both locking slots (83, 84) and lock the attachment device (2) in the closed position, in which the cable (2) cannot be out pulled through the through-going opening (6). The hinge axis (5) is parallel with the first and second plate members (3, 4) and that the through-going opening (6) is tubular.

A lock for an information handling system includes a sensor configured to detect removal of an element from a chassis prior to verification of a user credential, and a plunger that engages the chassis at a first position. A security controller verifies the user credential, and causes the muscle wire to move the plunger from the first position to a second position in response to the verified user credential.

A docking station includes a base and a first cable. The base has a plurality of ports. One end of the first cable connects to the base and the other end of the first cable connects to a first lock set.

An information handling system, including a chassis; a bottom door coupled to the chassis; an assembly, including a bracket coupled to the chassis, the bracket including an opening; a slider moveably coupled within the bracket, the slider including a cavity at least partially in superimposition with the opening; a nut positioned within the cavity, the nut including a threaded opening; and a fastener positioned through an opening of the bottom door and within the threaded opening of the nut to position the bottom door such that the bottom door abuts the chassis, wherein when the slider is in a first positional state with respect to the bracket, the nut is constrained within the cavity, wherein when the slider is in a second positional state with respect to the bracket, the nut is rotatable within the cavity.

A lock for an information handling system includes a sensor configured to detect removal of an element from a chassis prior to verification of a user credential, and a plunger that engages the chassis at a first position. A security controller verifies the user credential, and causes the muscle wire to move the plunger from the first position to a second position in response to the verified user credential.

A recoil security apparatus comprises a body extending along a body axis and comprising an inner surface. The inner surface defines a plurality of surface features and surrounds a shaft extending along the body axis. A first holder is supported by the body and a second holder supported by the body. A securing member comprises an outer surface and is configured to traverse the shaft and engage the plurality of surface features. The securing member connects to the first holder at a first end and to the second holder at a second end. Rotation of the securing member in a first direction causes one of the first holder and the second holder to move in a direction away from the body. Alternatively, rotation of the securing member in a second direction causes one of the first holder and the second holder to move in a direction toward the body.
