And you\u2019re not alone.<\/p>\n<p>A whopping 94% of surveyed cybersecurity pros say they\u2019re more concerned about security now than before COVID-19, and 64% say that security visibility is more difficult with employees working remotely.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, security risks specifically related to remote work top their lists of concerns.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hp.com\/za-en\/solutions\/computer-security.html?jumpid=ba_d18cacb39a&amp;utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=programmatic&amp;utm_campaign=security&amp;utm_content=rsa001\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here for more information about the HP Elitebook 840 G8 35T73EA with 11th Generation Intel\u00ae Core\u2122 i7 Processor<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>What if your business PCs were protected from cyberthreats from the inside out? What if you could easily manage your fleet remotely?<\/p>\n<p>What if your remote PC fleet could automatically fend for itself? Ask yourself the following six questions about your business PC security.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Is your PC security built on a firm foundation?<\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Their Move<\/h3>\n<p>What happens when hackers target your key defenses themselves?<\/p>\n<p>If cyberattackers can take down the root of your protections, control of your PCs is wide open.<\/p>\n<p>Hardware-based security is your best defense, helping you protect, detect, and recover from attacks. Can you guard your core defenses inside a bunker that malware can\u2019t touch?<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Your Move<\/h3>\n<p>The HP Endpoint Security Controller is the foundation of the security architecture that protects HP Elite PCs.<\/p>\n<p>This physically isolated, cryptographically protected chip houses hardware-enforced, self-healing security features like HP Sure Start, HP Sure Run, and HP Sure Recover.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Do your PCs know a threat when they see one?<\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Their Move<\/h3>\n<p>Traditional virus protection operates by checking code against a list of known malware, stopping anything it recognizes.<\/p>\n<p>But more than 350,000 new malware variations are created every day\u2014 and many of them use AI to disguise themselves through continuous mutation. Are your conventional defenses enough?<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Your Move<\/h3>\n<p>Fight AI with AI. HP Elite PCs are protected by HP Sure Sense, which uses deep-learning neural networks to recognize and defeat never-before seen malware. If malware does slip through, HP Sure Click isolates it in a micro-VM container so that it can\u2019t escape\u2014and then destroys it.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Can your PCs self-heal?<\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Their Move<\/h3>\n<p>Destructive firmware attacks can devastate a PC, fundamentally corrupting it by attacking it at the BIOS level. An OS-level attack can cost hours or days of worker downtime and IT attention before systems are restored and ready to get back to business. If an attack avoids detection, can your PCs fix themselves?<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Your Move<\/h3>\n<p>A complete solution must consider that eventually an attack may evade detection defenses. With HP Sure Start, HP Sure Recover, an HP Elite PC can automatically self-heal its BIOS from attacks or corruption and quickly recover its own OS\u2014from anywhere\u2014with or without a network connection.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Do your PCs require proof of identity?<\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Their Move<\/h3>\n<p>Password protection isn\u2019t enough for business PCs\u2014most hacking-related breaches stem from compromised credentials. From spear-phishing attacks that trick users for login information to bad hygiene practices like weak, shared, and reused passwords, how can you guard your greatest end point vulnerability\u2014your users?<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Your Move<\/h3>\n<p>Protect your PCs\u2014and your network\u2014from unauthorized access with multifactor authentication. Configure HP Elite PCs to require up to three verifications for login, including an optional fingerprint reader and IR camera for facial recognition. These policies are locked in at the hardware level.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Can you manage your PC security from anywhere?<\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Their Move<\/h3>\n<p>Managing remote devices is complicated, even in the best of times. With a scattered workforce using a mix of personal and business devices, having to manage more remote devices at once now ranks as one of the top five biggest challenges for IT managers. Is your hodge-podge of devices and policies a heyday for hackers?<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Your Move<\/h3>\n<p>Take control of your PC endpoints with a platform that lets you administer security settings from anywhere. HP Sure Admin gives IT admins a secure digital signature for managing BIOS settings remotely over the network.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Do your PCs protect against prying eyes?<\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Their Move<\/h3>\n<p>Hackers have more techniques than just digging through your hard drives. From over-the-shoulder coffee-shop lurkers to creepy camera-commandeers, unwanted eyes can watch your workers\u2014 and what they\u2019re working on\u2014from either side of the screen. Can your PCs protect your workers and your confidential data?<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Your Move<\/h3>\n<p>End visual hackers\u2019 game of I Spy with these built-in privacy tools:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>HP Privacy Camera, a physical shutter that protects users from surveillance<\/li>\n<li>HP Sure View, a one-touch privacy shield that makes the screen unreadable to those nearby<\/li>\n<li>HP Presence Aware, which confirms identity and unlocks the PC, hands-free<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">The next move is yours<\/h3>\n<p>Although the threat of cyberattacks has never been greater,choosing a business PC that can self-defend against those attacks has never been easier. HP Elite PCs are engineered with deep, hardware embedded security features that protect, detect, and recover from cyberattacks before they can disrupt your remote workforce\u2014 and your business.<\/p>\n<p>See why the HP Elite family of laptops, desktops, and convertibles are HP\u2019s Most Secure PCs <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hp.com\/za-en\/solutions\/computer-security.html?jumpid=ba_d18cacb39a&amp;utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=programmatic&amp;utm_campaign=security&amp;utm_content=rsa001\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Remote work has your PC fleet out of sight, but endpoint security is on your mind more than ever.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":57,"featured_media":509698,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10459],"tags":[1478],"class_list":["post-508296","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-industry-news","tag-hp"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/508296","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/57"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=508296"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/508296\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":508398,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/508296\/revisions\/508398"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/509698"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=508296"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=508296"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=508296"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
