Log in with your fingerprint

Maintain the fingerprint reader
To ensure that the fingerprint reader works correctly, do not:
• Scratch the surface of the reader with anything hard.
• Use or touch the reader with a wet, dirty, wrinkled, or injured finger.
Attention: If you always use your fingerprint to log in to the computer, you might forget your passwords.
Write down your passwords, and keep them in a safe place.
Use software security solutions
This section provides software solutions to secure your computer and information.
Use firewalls
A firewall can be hardware, software, or a combination of both depending on the level of security required.
Firewalls work on a set of rules to determine which inbound and outbound connections are authorized. If the
computer is preinstalled with a firewall program, it helps protect against computer Internet security threats,
unauthorized access, intrusions, and Internet attacks. It also protects your privacy. For more information
about how to use the firewall program, refer to the help system of your firewall program.
To use firewalls:
1. Go to Control Panel and view by large icons or small icons.
2. Click Windows Defender Firewall, and then follow the on-screen instructions.
Use computrace Agent software embedded in firmware (for selected
models)
The Computrace Agent software is an IT asset management and computer theft recovery solution. The
software detects if changes have been made on the computer, such as hardware, software, or the computer
call-in location. You might have to purchase a subscription to activate the Computrace Agent software.
