Industry Voice: PC protection that starts at the hardware level

PCs are your company's lifeblood—the linchpin for keeping things running. But, with cybersecurity threats rampant, PCs can also be a big security problem. How big? Stolen credentials or phishing attacks are behind 61 percent of data breaches,¹ and, often, an unprotected PC is the entry point. A successful attack can spread through your organization like wildfire, wreaking havoc in terms of downtime and lost productivity.
