Figure 2. HP ProtectTools Administrative Console The HP ProtectTools Security Manager framework allows you to adapt HP ProtectTools functionality through add-on modules as your security needs change. This approach ensures that all new HP ProtectTools security modules introduced over time are highly integrated. Ultimately, you benefit from security features that are easier to use, manageable, and provide enhanced value by taking advantage of the multiple security hardware attributes of the personal computing device. HP ProtectTools Security Manager provides global functionality needed by the installed security modules, as well as security setup features such as the setup wizard, user management and security backup and restore. HP security setup wizard Setting up security should be fast and easy. Getting started with HP ProtectTools is as easy as swiping your finger on the HP fingerprint sensor or clicking the desktop gadget. This launches the setup wizard for HP ProtectTools and guides you through a short list of simple questions after which your notebook is setup protected. The setup wizard is designed to help you secure access to your computer via a password, smartcard, fingerprint sensor, or face recognition. It allows you to safeguard the information on your hard drive using data encryption, securing both access and data for total information protection. Security levels can be selected individually or in combination. At a minimum, HP recommends accepting the default setting of W indows level and Pre-Boot Security. For total protection, Drive Encryption can also be selected. The setup wizard then does the rest. 4
