FULL STORY ======================================================================

For a lot of companies, the greatest threat to IT security in the workplace used to be BYOD. But with the modern office now relocating to peoples homes, coffee shops, and hotel rooms, theres a growing concern with keeping PCs secure that are outside your domain. Remote working has given employees a lot of flexibility when it comes to where theyre able to locate and be
productive, but it has also introduced new security problems for IT administrators and companies.

Luckily, HP EliteBook laptops have a number of industry-leading security solutions that safeguard user data at all times. The HP EliteBook 840 G7, powered by Intel Core i7 Processor works harder and faster than any other PCs on the market to intercept and handle a variety of security breaches all without user downtime or loss of productivity.

Take the ever-expanding problem of PC malware. On average, there are more
than 350,000 new variants of malware created every day. Typical software solutions use a checklist of known malware to compare new software, in order to recognize and stop malware attacks. While this may be effective to a degree, it relies on an always-updated malware list in order to maximize PC security.

The HP EliteBook 840 G7, powered by Intel Core i7 Processor takes this one step further, by utilizing deep-learning neural networks to recognize and defeat never-before-seen malware. Even before a user is aware that they have been compromised, the HP EliteBook is able to stop a malware attack from spreading by covertly isolating it in a micro-VM container, and then
disposing it.

Eventually, there may be a PC attack that does finally compromise your system and attacks it at the BIOS-level to render it unusable. Ransomware attacks regularly act this way, costing firms thousands of dollars in data recovery not to mention user downtime. Tools such as HP Sure Start and HP Sure Recover allows an HP EliteBook laptop to smoothly recover its BIOS from attacks or corruption, before recovering the OS to before the attack occurred even without a network connection. This kind of self-healing ensures that a PC can quickly be restore to a working condition without complicated remote installations or hours of technical support.

Passwords remain a never-ending threat to security as well, simply because recycled or easy to guess passwords are all too common practice. Users often do not observe the correct password policies, so it can be easy for a hacker to quickly compromise a system if a common password is being used. In order
to verify users in a more effective manner, the HP EliteBook 840 G7, powered by Intel Core i7 Processor can be configured to require up to three verifications for login, including an optional fingerprint reader and and IR camera for facial recognition. These policies are also locked in at the hardware level, which means that they cannot be easily compromised or bypassed, making for a much more secure login experience.

Lastly, physical threats to PC security are also very real. For anyone
working in a public space be it a coffee shop or a hot desk it is often
easy for prying eyes to look at screens or keyboards without being noticed. Software could also unknowingly be using a users webcam to record footage, which is another common security concern. To protect against this, HP EliteBook laptops come with a physical camera shutter button, which protects users from surveillance. Simply slide the shutter back when the webcam needs to be used. HP Sure View is another innovative feature, which makes the
screen unreadable for anyone nearby with a simple tap of a button.

Although the threat of cyberattacks has never been greater, choosing a business PC that can self-defend against those attacks has never been easier. The HP EliteBook 840 G7, powered by Intel Core i7 Processor is engineered
with deep, hardware-embedded security features that protect, detect, and recover from cyberattacks before they can disrupt your remote workforce and your business.
