Security Modules (Fingerprint & TPM)
The encrypted channel between the Trusted Platform Module security chip and the fingerprint reader with Protector Suite Software
provides a high level of security for your computer. A further level of security and control is provided in the BIOS (see "Security
Menu").
The fingerprint reader and Protector Suite Software allow you to:
•Access or Lock your computer
•Protect sensitive files
•Display and file your favorite web pages
•Fill in frequently used dialogs
•Run your favorite applications
The TPM security chip allows you to create and manage digital certificates for user and platform authentication. This type of
security is usually administered within large enterprises and organizations, and therefore requires implementation by a system
administrator before users can access security features. Individual users can use the TPM as an authentication with the fingerprint
reader.
Password Warning
If you set passwords for any of the security modules, NEVER forget your password. The consequences of this
could be serious. If you cannot remember your boot password you must contact your vendor and you may
lose all of the information on your hard disk.
