Today’s businesses are faced with unprecedented challenges. Globalization, the growth of geographically distributed teams, and emerging capacities in computing and communication have changed how, when, and where we work in fundamental ways. Securing data and corporate compliance continue to be crucial issues as threats to security grow in volume and variety. To stay competitive, organizations must continually assess and implement new capabilities that promise to deliver business value.

In this environment, it is important to deploy client platforms that enable your business to grow. The digital office initiative is a multi-year program driving the development of client platforms specifically for business customers. The digital office strategy specifically addresses the challenges and opportunities for businesses, today and tomorrow.

The digital office initiative defines specific continuous improvements to Intel®-based desktop and mobile computers. These improvements help protect your business, keep your business and your workforce better connected, and enable business agility with a flexible, capable infrastructure.

Businesses with a connected work force build competitive advantage by keeping employees connected with customers, coworkers and business data. The connected work force builds on the mobility enabled by Intel® CentrinoTM Mobile Technology.

New applications also accelerate the convergence of voice, data and video onto the PC. This makes the PC an even more powerful communication and collaboration tool, and transforms the way you do business. Enhance your business communication and collaboration with digital office platforms that interact seamlessly, securely and cost-effectively – across town, across the country, or around the world.

Securing your information assets is an ongoing mission that is never completed. Businesses who secure their data effectively reduce the risks of devastating attacks, improve employee productivity, and enable IT resources to focus on more proactive work.

Providing tools and capabilities to better protect client platforms is a primary focus of Intel’s digital office. PCs based on the digital office initiative include features that strengthen your defenses cost-effectively. These integrated capabilities help you better secure and manage your PC platforms, extending your business boundaries without compromising your security.
