Apparatus for locking together modules of a computer system includes first and second members that are secured, by screws, proximate adjacent edges of adjacent modules. Tabs on the members and holes through the tabs align so that a padlock may be utilized to lock the modules together. A slotted plate is positioned on the tabs and secured in place by the padlock to cover the securing screws so that they cannot be removed.
