The embedded security chip enhanced Drivelock* helps protect a hard drive from unauthorized access, even after it is removed from the system.
• Smart Card Security for HP ProtectTools allows you to enable optional Smart Card authentication before the operating system loads, providing an additional layer of protection against unauthorized use of the PC. You can also configure separate Smart Cards for an administrator and a user, and easily backup and restore credentials stored and the Smart Card.
• Credential Manager for HP ProtectTools is a personal password vault that makes accessing protected information more secure and convenient. Users won't need to remember multiple passwords for their collection of password protected websites, applications, and network resources, and a single sign-on capability adds additional protection, requiring users to use combinations of different security technologies, such as Smart Card and biometric when authenticating on the PC.
A single console, shown below, gives you easy-to-use access to the modules so you can customize your security tool kit.
