Travel shops sell small wedges that you can put under the door to prevent
someone using a pass key from getting in. If you have to leave your gear in
the room get the new locking wire mesh sacks for your camera bag. Lock to
something substantial and metal. If you are going to be "hit" by an inside
job, they may wait until your last day so you will have difficulty reporting
the theft to the police.

PS: A good insurance plan is a must as well.
