In a written response from Västerås City's political leadership and the police leadership in Västerås to the robbery against a school class at Rudbeckianska Gymnasium, it is said that the preventive security work must continue.

- Together with the Police Authority, we work to prevent crimes from happening and cooperate when crimes are committed in order to prosecute people who act criminally, says Staffan Jansson.

The computers blocked

The press release states that all computers used at Västerås City's upper secondary schools are locked against the City of Västerås and have encrypted hard drives.

A unique login is also required.

In the event of a theft like yesterday, it is not possible to connect the computer to the network or the Internet.

Furthermore, they write that if those who came across the school computers for some reason have access to a student's login, the computer can be tracked after logging in.
