Intel vPro Core-cons attack

Intel has formalized its second generation of processors "professionals" vPro Core i5 and i7. Designed for business computers, these chips based on the Sandy Bridge architecture benefit from a number of features that improve security. Thus, technology Intel Anti-Theft Alarm 3.0 is able to remotely disable a stolen computer through a built-in 3G module, but also allows an administrator to lock your computer remotely by sending a text message encrypted and authenticated .

It is of course possible to unlock the computer by the same method. This technology can also locate a computer with an integrated GPS module. The IPT (Identity Protection Tool) improves on its side protection against phishing (or phishing). Many manufacturers such as Dell, Fujitsu, HP or Lenovo already announced they will integrate these vPro Core processors in the second generation of new products (convertible tablets, laptops or PCs All-in-One) .
