Latitude E6500, E6400 Reviewer’s Guide

Simply Secure

Information technology has become a backbone for our customers. It is a daily tool for real time collaboration as well as crucial business data storage. At the same time, our world has become extremely mobile: valuable files are sent over the networks or carried around the planet on notebooks. As a result, there is a growing threat for data loss or leakage.

Whether you need enhanced physical protection or easy to manage protection for your critical data, Dell’s security offering can help. We are committed to simplifying security deployment, usage and maintenance, in order to allow smaller businesses to acquire relevant security and larger organizations to implement at low total cost of ownership impact.

Deploy Faster

The complexity of IT can slow down even the most tightly run organization. By speeding up deployment and configuration, you can reclaim wasted time and redirect it toward growing your business.

Dell can deliver a fully secured system directly from the factory that covers all four key aspects of security: System Protection, Access Control, Data protection and Malicious Threats prevention.

With Dell’s Custom Factory Integration (CFI), we can deliver pre-configured systems including non-Dell standard hardware and proprietary software right out of the factory.

CFI offers security features such as custom asset tags, and StopTrack or TLS labels.
