system management
3.2.5 asset tracking and security
The asset control features incorporated into the workstation provide key asset tracking data
that can be managed using HP Insight Manager products and Management Solutions Partners
products. Seamless, automatic integration between AssetControl features and these products
enables you to choose the management tool that is best suited to your environment and to
leverage your investment in existing tools.
HP workstations are manufactured with the hardware and firmware required to fully support the
DMI 2.0 standard.
HP also offers several solutions for controlling access to valuable components and information.
Security features such as the hood cover sensor and the solenoid hood cover lock, available as an
option, help to prevent unauthorized access to the internal components of the workstation. By
disabling parallel, serial, or USB ports, or by disabling removable media boot capability, you can
protect valuable data assets. Memory Change and hood cover sensor alerts can be automatically
forwarded to HP Insight Manager products to deliver proactive notification of tampering with a
workstation’s internal components.
There are three ways to manage security settings on your HP workstations:
■
Locally, using the Setup Utilities. See the “Computer Setup menu” section earlier in this
chapter for additional information and instructions on using the Computer Setup Utilities.
■
Remotely, using the Remote Security Management software. This software enables the
secure, consistent deployment and control of security settings from a central point on the
network using a third-party PC LAN management application such as Microsoft SMS.
■
Remotely, using HP Insight Manager LC, a tool for managing PC workgroups.
