Protection at chip level
To resolve the seemingly never ending stream of spam, viruses and malware that is causing PCs and notebooks to crash seemingly at will is akin to searching for the ?Holy Grail?. But Intel, armed with its latest system defence technology known as vPro, claims to have the cure.
At the launch of vPro in Malaysia recently, Gary Willihnganz, Intel Technology Asia?s marketing director said, ?vPro changes the way businesses and IT managers view and use PCs. Intel is packing in features that address what plague businesses the most?security threats, cost of ownership, resource allocation, asset management and uptime.? vPro rides on the strengths of Intel?s Core 2 Duo processor and Q965 Express chipsets, designed to offer multi-tasking responsiveness and 40 per cent higher performance, and Active Management Technology (AMT) that boasts built-in remote manageability features such as remote troubleshooting without disrupting the network.
