Businesses today are plagued by increasing economic and security threats such as malicious viruses, spyware and identity theft. This is handcuffing IT managers who are constantly driven to improve processes and customer service models. IT managers know that a built-in defense means a more secure system and stopping security threats before they reach the operating system is critical.

Here is where Intel? vPro? technology comes into play. PCs with Intel vPro tecnology can inspect both the inbound and outbound traffic for viruses, worms and other malware. It can then quarantine the PC if it should become infected thereby stopping the virus from spreading. System security is also boosted through Intel?a Virtualization Technology (Intel? VT), a core technology within Intel vPro technology, which allows for separate independent hardware-based environments inside a single PC so IT managers can create a dedicated, tamper-resistant service environment where certain tasks or activities can run independently, invisible to and isolated from PC users.

Join this live, interactive eSeminar, the first in a three-part series sponsored by Intel, and hear directly from security experts and Intel executives:

• How by utilizing the built-in virtualization capabilities of Intel vPro technology you can run a virtual environment outside of the main OS.
• How you can improve security and check network traffic through the virtual "security appliance"
• How vendors such as Symantec are working with Intel to further enhance system security
