Protecting the tablet

Standard security features provided by the Windows operating system and the HP BIOS Settings utility can protect your personal settings and data from a variety of risks.

NOTE: Security solutions are designed to act as deterrents. These deterrents may not prevent a product from being mishandled or stolen.

NOTE: Before you send your tablet for service, back up and delete confidential files, and remove all password settings.

NOTE: Some features listed in this chapter may not be available on your tablet.

NOTE: Your tablet supports Absolute Data Protect. If your tablet is lost or stolen, it can be located and locked, and personal data can be deleted from a remote location. The tablet must be connected to the Internet.
