Select Notebook PCs with Intel® Centrino® 2 with vPro™ technology now have innovative Intel® Anti-Theft Technology - PC Protection (Intel® AT-p)¹ built in. Intel AT-p for notebooks provides the option to activate hardware-based client-side intelligence to secure the PC and its data in the event the notebook is lost or stolen.
Activating via your choice of security software vendors (ISVs) or service providers, hardware-based Intel AT-p for notebooks provides local, tamper-resistant defense that works like a poison pill that disables the computer even if the operating system (OS) is reimaged, a new hard drive is installed, or the notebook is disconnected from the network. Over time, this capability may assist as a preventive theft deterrent.

¹ No computer system can provide absolute security under all conditions. Intel® Anti-Theft Technology (Intel® AT-p) for PC protection (also referred to as the 'poison pill' in some documents) requires the computer system to have an Intel AT-p-enabled chipset, BIOS, firmware release, software and an Intel AT-p-capable Service Provider/ISV application and service subscription. Intel AT-p (PC Protection) performs the encrypted data access disable by preventing access to or deleting cryptographic material (e.g. encryption keys) required to access previously encrypted data. ISV-provided Intel AT-p-capable encryption software may store this cryptographic material in the PC's chipset. In order to restore access to data when the system is recovered, this cryptographic material must be escrowed/backed up in advance in a separate device or server provided by the security ISV/service provider. The detection (triggers), response (actions), and recovery mechanisms only work after the Intel AT-p functionality has been activated and configured. The activation process requires an enrollment procedure in order to obtain a license from an authorized security vendor/service provider for each PC or batch of PCs. Activation also requires setup and configuration by the purchaser or service provider and may require scripting with the console. Certain functionality may not be offered by some ISVs or service providers. Certain functionality may not be available in all countries. Intel assumes no liability for lost or stolen data and/or systems or any other damages resulting thereof.
