Password Manager

Password Manager stores user names and passwords, and can be used to:

Save login names and passwords for Internet access or email.

Automatically log the user in to a website or email.

Manage and organize authentications.

Select a Web or network asset and directly access the link.

View names and passwords when necessary.

Example 1: A purchasing agent for a large manufacturer makes most of her corporate transactions over the Internet. She also frequently visits several popular websites that require login information. She is keenly aware of security so does not use the same password on every account. The purchasing agent has decided to use Password Manager to match Web links with different user names and passwords. When she goes to a website to log on, Password Manager presents the credentials automatically. If she wants to view the user names and passwords, Password Manager can be configured to display them.

Password Manager can also be used to manage and organize the authentications. This tool will allow a user to select a Web or network asset and directly access the link. The user can also view the user names and passwords when necessary.

Example 2: A hard-working CPA has been promoted and will now manage the entire accounting department. The team must log on to a large number of client Web accounts, each of which uses different login information. This login information needs to be shared with other workers, so confidentiality is an issue. The CPA decides to organize all the Web links, company user names, and passwords within Password Manager. Once complete, the CPA deploys Password Manager to the employees so they can work on the Web accounts and never know the login credentials that they are using.

Drive Encryption for HP ProtectTools (select models only)

Drive Encryption is used to restrict access to the data on the entire computer hard drive or a secondary drive. Drive Encryption can also manage self-encrypting drives.

Example 1: A doctor wants to make sure only he can access any data on his computer hard drive. The doctor activates Drive Encryption, which requires pre-boot authentication before Windows login. Once set up, the hard drive cannot be accessed without a password before the operating system starts. The doctor could further enhance drive security by choosing to encrypt the data with the self- encrypting drive option.

Drive Encryption for HP ProtectTools does not allow access to the encrypted data even when the drive is removed, because they are both bound to the original system board.

Example 2: A hospital administrator wants to ensure only doctors and authorized personnel can access any data on their local computer without sharing their personal passwords. The IT department adds the administrator, doctors, and all authorized personnel as Drive Encryption users. Now only authorized personnel can boot the computer or domain using their personal user name and password.
