Laptop theft is a for nightmare businesses and individuals alike and it’s often said that the most valuable part of a laptop isn’t the drive or the screen, but your data. Yesterday, Intel’s executive vice president and general manager of the mobility group, Dadi Perlmutter, demonstrated an upcoming anti-theft technology that promises to track, disable and even scramble the data on the laptops. Coincidentally, a not so stealthy ninja ran up to the stage and stole Perlmutter’s laptop during the demo. But never fear, Intel’s “Kill Pill” is here.
