Installing Critical Security Updates; Using Hp Client Security (Select Products Only); Using Hp Touchpoint Manager (Select Products Only); Installing An Optional Security Cable (Select Products Only) - HP ProBook 450 G2 User Manual

When a firewall is installed on a system, all data sent to and from the system is monitored and compared with
a set of user-defined security criteria. Any data that does not meet those criteria is blocked.
Your computer or networking equipment may already have a firewall installed. If not, firewall software
solutions are available.
NOTE: Under some circumstances a firewall can block access to Internet games, interfere with printer or file
sharing on a network, or block authorized e-mail attachments. To temporarily resolve the problem, disable
the firewall, perform the task that you want to perform, and then reenable the firewall. To permanently
resolve the problem, reconfigure the firewall.
