Hands-On Lab: 10:45 -11:45 am

 

AP L02: Eliminate Network Attacks during Remote Software Deployment

 

 

Abstract: Protecting networks and PCs from potential threats is a full-time job; however, Intel® vProTM technology can help IT administrators streamline the process and better protect clients and block network access. Network filtering software is commonly used to protect the network from a client, or protect the client from a potential threat on the network. Intel vPro technology enables IT administrators to easily deploy software without making a deskside visit and even though the filter is engaged, the Notification Server can still manage the client. During this lab, attendees will learn how to deliver software and update the client while the network filters are engaged.

 

 

Instructors: John Dickensheets (ITS), Terry Cutler (Intel), Lee Bender (Symantec)

 

 

 

Breakout Session: 2:15-3:15 pm

At ManageFusion, we had the Intel vPro technology Challenge at the event - a competition where teams of two competed to find and fix a troubled PC. Each team had an opportunity to interact with Intel vPro technology based PCs from the Symantec Altiris Client Management Suite, and most had fun in the process! Check out the highlights from the Challenge.

On April 8th, Intel Vice-President Gregory Bryant was part of the opening ManageFusion keynote led by Symantec's Steve Morton.

 

In the first part of the keynote, Steve talked about his travels to Intel to learn more about Intel vPro technology. Then Gregory talked about about how customers are realizing value today with Intel vPro technology through better remote management, better power management and better security policies - essentially allowing IT administrators to "levitate." View the first part of the keynote below:

 

 

 

 

Then, Gregory (along with Steve) introduced Ted Wilkinson, an IT Vice-President at Bank of NY-Mellon. He talked about his infrastructure of 47,000 PCs after the integration of Bank of NY with Mellon Bank, and how Intel vPro technology helps his new infrastructure with enhanced remote power control and remote remediation - which eliminates costs within his new infrastructure.

 

Also, Gregory discussed future Intel vPro technology directions - including:

 

    • The dynamic virtual client - which blends the manageability of thin clients with the ability to take advantage of the performance of thick clients

    • The ability to manage laptops and desktops that are outside of the corporate firewall starting with Intel vPro technology that come out mid 2008

    • The integration of hard drive encryption with Intel vPro technology starting in Q3'08 that is easy to manage
