<P> A Kensington Security Slot (also called a K - Slot or Kensington lock) is part of an anti-theft system designed and patented by Kryptonite in 1999 - 2000, assigned to Schlage in 2002, and since 2005 owned and marketed by Kensington Computer Products Group, a division of ACCO Brands . </P> <P> The system consists of a small, metal - reinforced hole found commonly on small or portable computers and electronics equipment such as laptops, computer monitors, desktop computers, gaming consoles, and video projectors, combined with a metal anchor attached to a rubberized metal cable secured with a key or combination lock . The end of the cable has a small loop that allows the cable to be looped around a permanent object, such as a heavy table or other similar equipment . </P> <P> The hole is found in most laptops, although a lock for it is typically not included . Occasionally, the slot is located so that installing a lock will also prevent the removal of a valuable subcomponent, such as a rechargeable battery or a memory module . The Kensington slot may be marked with a small icon that looks like a padlock with a capital "K", or the slot may be unlabelled . </P>
