关闭盖子时自动锁定 Chromebook 的屏幕

Question

Can a Chromebook be configured to automatically lock the screen when I close the lid?

There is a discussion in If someone steals my chromebook while it's off, will him be able to see my cached data? about the security of user data for a Chromebook which has been shutdown, but I am trying to ensure user data is secure when the laptop is suspended by closing the lid. My device is a Samsung Series 5 running (obviously!) the latest version of ChromeOS. I've noticed that the default configuration has the laptop resuming with no password prompt after being suspended.

On a Chromium support page (Protecting Cached User Data), the following is mentioned as a risk which allows the encryption mechanism to be bypassed:

An attacker will be able to access all user data if the machine is suspended or logged in and screen locking is disabled.

I haven't been able to find more details yet on how to enable "screen locking".

Please note that I know there is a "lock" menu item I could select before closing the lid but I'm really trying to keep with what I believe is the spirit of the Chrome OS experience by minimizing any extra steps that stand between me and my personal computing. I want locking to "just work" (but of course I am willing to take the extra step of typing my password when I resume from suspend).

Answer 1

您可以按照以下步骤获得此选项：

1. 登录您的 Chrome 设备。
2. 单击右下角的状态区域，您的帐户图片出现在该区域。
3. 选择设置和帮助并找到“人员”部分。
4. 使用“需要密码才能从睡眠中唤醒”复选框来调整此设置。

现在，每次您的 Chromebook 进入“睡眠”状态时，您都需要在锁定提示音时输入密码。
