Component protection
The components in the computer have serial numbers on them. You can register
the components with a third-party security company to improve the chances of
identifying the components if they are ever stolen and recovered. For more
information about component registration, see the IBM support page at
http://www.ibm.com/pc/us/desktop/assetid/ on the World Wide Web.
Data protection
You can lose data from the hard disk drive for a variety of reasons. Security
violations, viruses, or hard disk drive failures can all contribute to data loss. To help
protect against the loss of valuable information, IBM has incorporated a data-saving
feature into the computer.
IBM security solutions: IBM security solutions help keep electronic business
transactions safe. They include the following:
v Data protection
v Locked keyboard
SMART hard disk drive: The computer comes with a SMART hard disk drive that
is enabled to report potential hard disk failures. If an error is detected, a
DMI-compliant warning message is sent to the computer screen and, if the
computer is part of a network, to an administrator console. When an error is
detected, the data on the hard disk can be backed up and the drive replaced.
SMART Reaction: To help back up important data, IBM provides SMART
Reaction
™
software on the computers with preinstalled software and also on the
IBM Software Selections CD. SMART Reaction is a client/server software
application that helps users and administrators respond effectively to a warning
issued by the SMART hard disk drive.
Virus protection: The computer has built-in virus protection that can be enabled
through the Configuration/Setup Utility program. This built-in protection only checks
for viruses in the boot record. Also, Norton AntiVirus for IBM is available on the IBM
Software Selections CD.
Locking the keyboard: You can lock the keyboard so that others are unable to
use it. If a user password is set, the keyboard is locked when you turn on the
computer. You must type the correct password before the keyboard will unlock. You
can enable the user password feature with the BIOS Setup Utility program. See
Setting Security Passwords in Access IBM.
Some operating systems have a keyboard and mouse lock-up feature. Refer to the
documentation that comes with the operating system for more information.
