THE LOCK JAR

A jar of locks, arrrr 🏴‍☠️🦜🔒🫙

The Lock Jar is a fun way to create awareness for personal and corporate security as it 'forces' people to look after their devices and lock them when left unattended. You can use this page to leave a message on a device when left unlocked and unattended.

LOCK THIS DEVICE

Join the movement, one lock at a time 🔒

Before you lock a device of a peer or coworker leave him/her/them a message, hopefully this will trigger them to look after their devices and lock them when leaving them unattended in the future. If your friend or coworker is a sport he/she/they will settle a symbolic 'lock bounty', these can range from a small charitable donation to buying a cake for your pears and coworkers.
