How thievable are oscilloscopes?

Cleaners are now fully salaried background checked.

An issue for minimum wage slaves is they often have to pay for their own CBC before a contract company hires them. Pay for a CBC with a loan from the hiring company. Laptop and device theft is a perenial problem. Even devices bound to a corporate Apple ID vanish; only to reappear on ebay listed as "does not boot" or "cannot login". I think people take them just to pose with an Apple logoed (dead) device.
Someone suggested using a Kensington lock. Those are great provided the slot is cut in mild steel and, the strap is not attached to the desk with a pound store plastic hook. Seriously, I have seen a 'professional' fitter do this. K locks are great for use as fall arrestors otherwise, try Mig welding the 'scope to the desk - and make sure the desk is wider than the door.
