How should digital nomads keep things safe? sharing lessons from getting robbed

As everything in life, freedom of working remotely often comes with a price of losing your precious data and electronic devices if you're not careful.

What are the precaution measures that you're taking to prevent or prepare yourself in case your things and data get stolen such as disk encryption, strong passwords, etc.?

I wrote an article sharing some of the lessons after getting computer stolen with all the data earlier this year: http://blog.nightwatch.io/digital-nomad-safety

Would be very curious to hear your experience
