I am not entirely sure I get your question. But, you could install a firewall, and AV. Really other than that there is nothing you need to do to take your laptop with you. At least IMO.

I suggest comodo firewall. Its pretty good. Just it annoys the crap out of me cuse I game. Really any firewall does. 
I also suggest Avast for a AV. It works great!

Perfect! I have Avast already and have a scan yesterday and also defrag.. toooo sloww! I'll say about 1 full day to complete and i believe it is in different format... Normally we use NTFS but i use FAT.

Ah yeah, turning the brightness down will definitely save power. 
Yup Avast is the best!
