Access information about your computer, such as how many processors it has and what operating system it is running

l

 

Monitor the status of your computer, such as listening for thermal alerts from temperature probes or hard-drive failure alerts from storage devices

NOTICE:

Although passwords provide security for the data on your computer, they are not foolproof. If your data requires more security, it is your

responsibility to obtain and use additional forms of protection, such as data encryption programs.

NOTICE:

If you leave your computer running and unattended without having a system password assigned, or if you leave your computer unlocked so

that someone can disable the password by changing a jumper setting, anyone can access the data stored on your hard drive.
