When you first think
about buying a desktop or workstation, some big questions
necessarily come to mind. The answers are different for every system
you buy simply because you buy each system for a different
purpose.
Before you make a
desktop purchase, you should consider the importance of
the data you plan to store on the system, and how it
will be connected to other systems that might house
sensitive company information. While every computer in
your business should have anti-virus and anti-spam
software installed on it, those systems that will hold
particularly sensitive data may need to have additional
security options to better protect your company's
intellectual property and networks. If the system you
are purchasing needs extra security, be sure to look for
business desktop PCs that offer more robust security
features.
HP ProtectTools is a family of business PC
security products, services, and features that allow you
to add specific types of security to your systems. The
HP ProtectTools Security Manager is an extensible
console that gives you a single point of control over
all elements of security for your system. You can choose
specific security modules for your system to support
your security needs. An example of a module is BIOS
configuration for HP ProtectTools gives you control over
your computer's BIOS settings and can prevent anyone who
doesn't know your BIOS password from booting your
system.
