Anaheim, Calif. – December 16, 2025 – Targus®, a global leader in laptop cases and mobile computing accessories, today announced the launch of its DEFCON® Ultimate Universal Hybrid Resettable & Serialized Combination Lock – a versatile, enterprise-ready solution designed to protect laptops and peripherals in hybrid and work-from-anywhere environments.
“Hybrid work has changed the way organizations think about security,” said David Dorantes, Director, Product Marketing, Targus. “According to current industry data, a laptop is stolen every 53 seconds, over 600,000 laptops are stolen annually in the U.S., and 97% of stolen laptops are never recovered. With these staggering statistics, businesses can’t afford to overlook physical security. This universal hybrid lock offers a simple, effective way to protect devices and sensitive data, anywhere.”
Built for scale, this universal lock is the go-to choice for IT teams managing a mobile workforce. Designed to fit virtually any lock slot, this sleek, patented protective lock combines convenience and enterprise-grade security for laptops, monitors, and docking stations wherever work happens.
The DEFCON Ultimate Universal Hybrid Lock is engineered for flexibility and control. Its hybrid design combines a self-resettable 4-digit combination for individual convenience with a serialized master code for IT management, stored securely in the DEFCON cloud portal for easy and secure retrieval. This dual-code system ensures employees can personalize their lock while IT teams maintain centralized access for compliance and recovery. With a universal tip, the lock fits nearly all common lock slots – including Kensington® Nano, Kensington K-Slot, and Noble® wedge – eliminating the need for interchangeable heads. A 360° rotating lock head keeps ports accessible, while the 6.5 ft./2 m galvanized, sleeved steel cable delivers robust, cut-resistant protection. Strong, travel-friendly, and universally compatible, it’s built to safeguard devices wherever work happens.
Available now via B2B distribution channels worldwide, the DEFCON Ultimate Universal Hybrid Lock is priced at $49.99 for a single pack (ASP106RGLXS) and $1,249.75 for a 25-pack (ASP106RGLX25S).
