Today at HP Reinvent, the company’s largest global partner event, HP Inc unveiled a variety of new offerings – including a security service and consumer and commercial PCs. “As customers’ expectations for amazing technology is higher than ever, collaborating with our partners to meet the evolving needs of the next generation has never been more critical,” said Alex Cho, President, Personal Systems, HP Inc. He added, “By creating ways for customers to manage, detect and defend against security threats with HP DaaS Proactive Security Service; and, bringing commercial and consumer premium PC design mainstream, we remain passionate about creating the world’s most exciting devices and intelligent solutions.”
Security as a Service
HP has unveiled a new security-focused managed service designed to enforce policies, actively monitor, proactively respond, and defend against the threat of undetected attacks. HP DaaS Proactive Security Service, a significant extension to HP’s device as a service offering, is designed to go beyond anti-virus solutions and provide a critical extra layer of defense.
“The strategic collaboration with HP further demonstrates Aon’s holistic approach to cyber risk management by integrating our CyQu assessment methodology and our middle-market insurance panel to diagnose client risk, enable risk transfer and provide prescriptive remediation recommendations. At Aon, we continue to innovate to solve our clients’ most pressing cyber challenges, and the integration of Aon’s cyber capabilities into the HP DaaS solution is evidence of the tremendous value we can create together,” said J Hogg, CEO, Cyber Solutions, Aon.
