Protect Your Privacy

When you use the tablet PC for e-mail, network, or Internet access, it is possible for unauthorized persons to obtain information about you, your tablet PC, and your data.

To optimize the privacy protection features included with your tablet PC, it is recommended that you

Keep your Windows operating system updated. Many Windows updates contain security enhancements. For information about updating Windows, refer to the “Updating Software” section.

Use a firewall.

A firewall is software that controls access to data and resources on the network. This protects your wireless network from intruders.

Updating Software
