This week’s round-up of products for preview include the ThinkCentre desktop from Lenovo (pictured), business secrets protection software and Epson A4 photo printers.
Lenovo Think Centre M55p
What is it? New fleet of desktop PCs
How much? TBC
Lenovo has rolled out several new desktop PCs that include Rescue and Recovery technology to help business users recover from system crashes quickly and easily. The new M55p ThinkCentre desktop is part of two lines of new ThinkCentre desktops that for the first time include Intel Core 2 Duo processors. The system provides enterprise users with high performance, enhanced security features and automation tools designed to help IT staff remotely manage systems. The machines are pre-loaded with ThinkVantage technologies, a suite of software tools that help maintain productivity and reduce costly and time-consuming calls to the helpdesk.
Deep Content Control
What is it? Prevents data leaks from organisations
How much? Price not yet available until next year
Web security and productivity software firm Websense has developed a product that both Bertie Ahern and the Mahon Tribunal could only wish was around in recent weeks. Aimed at businesses, the company has developed a tool that prevents the unwanted dissemination of sensitive and confidential information – from personnel records to corporate trading secrets. The new Deep Content Control technology acts as a ‘digital data guardian’ to help control how sensitive data can leave the organisation and under what circumstances. For the first time, organisations will be able to control where users go, how they get there, and what information they can send or use under a unified policy management console.
For example, a business could identify and prevent an employee from accidentally or maliciously sending customer credit card data, sales projections or product source code and plans to a non-trusted or unknown location or unauthorised internal recipients. As a result, organisations can more effectively and efficiently respond to issues related to corporate governance and intellectual property protection.
