  • (1888PressRelease) October 31, 2016 - San Mateo, CA - Kensington®, a worldwide leader of desktop productivity and mobility solutions for IT, business and home office professionals and The Professionals' Choice for nearly 35 years, today announced the introduction of the Kensington Locking Kit for Surface™ Studio, the only physical security product available for the groundbreaking new device announced by Microsoft® on October 26.

    The locking kit consists of a security slot adapter for the Surface Studio, a MiniSaver™ Keyed Lock with a 5-foot carbon steel cable, and two keys. The lock adapter attaches to the bottom of the Surface Studio and is designed with a Kensington Mini Security Slot. When combined, the adapter and MiniSaver lock will protect the Surface Studio from theft.

    "We are extremely proud to introduce the Kensington Locking Kit for Surface Studio," said Rob Humphrey, Director of Global Product Management, Security, Kensington. "Due to the design of the Surface Studio, Microsoft had very specific needs when it came to a security solution, and Kensington engineers worked collaboratively with Microsoft on finding a solution. Not only did it have to be strong, it had to complement the design of the Surface Studio, and our engineers have delivered in every way possible."

    In 2015, in conjunction with the launch of Kensington's BlackBelt 1st Degree Rugged Case for Surface Pro 3, the company announced its participation in the Microsoft "Designed for Surface" Program, which empowers the organization to develop Surface-specific accessories for business and consumer use. The goal of the program is to provide third-party hardware accessory manufacturers specific technical guidance to help create exceptional accessories that work seamlessly with Surface devices. Microsoft created the program to address the growing demand for Surface accessories for use in business, at home, and on the go.

    The Kensington Locking Kit for Surface Studio will be available for order on December 15.
