The most secure notebooks available are now even better with one integrated security solution out of the box (available on select ThinkPad R52 models). The combination of the Integrated Fingerprint Reader and the Client Security Solution is like having a security guard for your notebook. The Integrated Fingerprint Reader is built conveniently into the palm rest of the system, making your passwords available at your finger tip. When combined with preloaded security software - which allows you to create a single password for all of your authentication needs - a single swipe of your finger can eliminate the need to remember and enter multiple passwords. You cannot get a higher level of security as a standard feature on a PC from any other manufacturer. |
