Using HP Client Security

HP Client Security software is preinstalled on computer models. This software can be accessed through the HP Client Security tile on the Start screen, the HP Client Security icon in the notification area at the far right of the taskbar, or Windows Control Panel. It provides security features that help protect against unauthorized access to the computer, networks, and critical data. For more information, see the HP Client Security software Help.

Using the fingerprint reader (select models only)

Integrated fingerprint readers are available on select computer models. In order to use the fingerprint reader, you must enroll your fingerprints in the HP Client Security's Credential Manager. Refer to the HP Client Security software Help.

After you enroll your fingerprints in Credential Manager, you can use HP Client Security's Password Manager to store and fill in your user names and passwords in supported websites and applications.

Locating the fingerprint reader

The fingerprint reader is a small metallic sensor that is located in one of the following areas of your computer:

●Near the bottom of the TouchPad

●On the right side of the keyboard

●On the upper-right side of the display

●On the left side of the display

Depending on your computer model, the reader may be oriented horizontally or vertically. Both orientations require that you swipe your finger perpendicular to the metallic sensor.
