should have. An unauthorized person who gains access to another person's password can also gain access to that person's secure information. However, if Authentication technologies in HP ProtectTools HP client PCs support a breadth of authentication devices in the Microsoft® Windows® operating system - HP Tc4200 | HP ProtectTools: Authentication technologies and suitability to task - Page 3
in a client PC or other computing device that is able to protect credentials and cryptographic functions. A type of token that, passwords can be compromised via contact with keyboard monitoring viruses or other forms of commonly used network attacks. To compound the problem, a compromised password - HP Tc4200 | HP ProtectTools: Authentication technologies and suitability to task - Page 4
utilizing the TPM to generate a strong 2048 bit Drivelock password. In addition to improving security, this feature also improves overall system usability as authenticating to the TPM during boot also unlocks Drivelock, effectively linking the hard drive to the platform. TPMs lend themselves to easy - HP Tc4200 | HP ProtectTools: Authentication technologies and suitability to task - Page 5
and steps can be taken to prevent access to the system and the network. Smart cards provide for mobility (stronger, portable user authentication on devices). to PKI support, HP ProtectTools also provides the means to more securely store user authentication credentials like passwords and therefore - HP Tc4200 | HP ProtectTools: Authentication technologies and suitability to task - Page 6
to PKI support, HP ProtectTools also provides the means to more securely store user authentication credentials like passwords and therefore does should be used in combination with other technologies. 3 While network authentication for biometrics can be implemented, the flexibility would be limited - HP Tc4200 | HP ProtectTools: Authentication technologies and suitability to task - Page 7
