Subject: Incident Report for Lost Company Laptop on October 14, 2024

Dear Ms. Turner,

I am writing to formally report the loss of a company-issued laptop that occurred on October 14, 2024, at approximately 5:30 PM. The laptop, assigned to Sarah Johnson, was last seen in Conference Room C after a meeting ended at 4:30 PM.

After the meeting, Sarah Johnson left the laptop on the table while attending another meeting. Upon returning at 5:30 PM, she discovered that the laptop was missing. She immediately notified me of the loss, and I initiated a search of the room and surrounding areas, but we were unable to locate the laptop.

The missing laptop is a Dell XPS 13 with the company asset tag #XYZ12345. It contains important company documents, but all files are encrypted and password-protected. Sarah Johnson confirmed that no confidential information was stored locally on the device.

We interviewed two employees who were in the conference room shortly after the meeting:

  • Mark Spencer, IT Technician
  • Emily Wright, Sales Manager

To address this issue, I recommend the following actions:

  • Review the CCTV footage of Conference Room C and the hallway for any suspicious activity.
  • Issue a memo to all employees reminding them to safeguard company property and secure their items at all times.
  • Consider enhanced security protocols for high-traffic areas.

Please let me know if you require further details or assistance in investigating this matter.

Sincerely,
John Williams
Office Administrator
