6 | WHAT IS THE INTEL WEB TABLET?
Privacy, Security, and Parental Control
The Wireless Network Code
The Intel Web Tablet communicates with the PC using Intel
AnyPoint wireless home networking technology. The network
code that you create during tablet installation helps to deter
anyone from “listening in” on the wireless connection while you
browse. Only devices that use the same network code and are
within a certain proximity to each other can communicate over
the same wireless connection. You can change your network
code at any time using the Tablet Connection Wizard on the PC
and the network code setting on the tablet.
The network code that you create when you install the tablet
software onto the PC allows multiple tablets to exist
independently in a given area. The network code is a 24-bit code
that provides 16 million possible codes. Similar to the security
code on a cordless phone, the network code on the tablet greatly
minimizes the likelihood of interference from eavesdropping
and other nearby tablets.
Secure Transactions
Many web sites use a special type of secure communication that
prevents unauthorized access to the information that is sent to or
from those sites. The tablet supports these types of secure
Internet transactions.
You’ll know you’re at a secure web site when a lock icon
appears in the lower right corner of the tablet screen.
Internet Connection Security
The security of the connection between the PC and your Internet
Service Provider (ISP) is governed by your ISP. Read the
information provided by your ISP to learn about their security
policies.
Proxy Settings for Security and Parental Control
If the PC has a firewall set up via a proxy server, or if the
Internet browser on the PC uses a proxy server to connect to the
Internet or to enable parental control software, you can set up
the tablet to use the same proxy settings as your browser. Use
the Tablet Connection Wizard to enter proxy settings for the
tablet.
For more information about tablet proxy settings, click
Help
on
the Proxy Settings dialog of the Tablet Connection Wizard.
