Desktop Management Guide Asset Tracking and Security Asset tracking features incorporated into the computer provide key asset tracking data that can be managed using HP Insight Manager, HP Client Manager or other system management applications. Seamless, automatic integration between asset tracking features and these products enables you to choose the management tool that is best suited to your environment and to leverage your investment in existing tools. HP also offers several solutions for controlling access to valuable components and information. Security features such as the Smart Cover Sensor and the Smart Cover Lock, available on select models, help to prevent unauthorized access to the internal components of the personal computer. By disabling parallel, serial, or USB ports, or by disabling removable media boot capability, you can protect valuable data assets. Memory Change and Smart Cover Sensor alerts can be automatically forwarded to system management applications to deliver proactive notification of tampering with a computer's internal components. ✎ The Smart Cover Sensor and the Smart Cover Lock are available as options on select systems. Use the following utilities to manage security settings on your HP computer: ■ Locally, using the Computer Setup Utilities. See the Computer Setup (F10) Utility Guide included with the computer for additional information and instructions on using the Computer Setup Utilities. ■ Remotely, using HP Client Manager or System Software Manager. This software enables the secure, consistent deployment and control of security settings from a simple command-line utility. Desktop Management Guide www.hp.com 15
