Introduction

As computers are getting increasingly mobile and better connected, threats to data security are

increasing in magnitude as well as complexity. Correspondingly business customers, for whom data

security can have a direct impact on the health of their business, are becoming increasingly

concerned about this problem.

HP saw the need for a better security solution very early, and started devoting resources to solving this

problem. Knowing that security needed to be addressed holistically, HP required the solution to bring

many technology areas together in a way that helps ensure not only protection for client devices, but

also helps ensure that client devices themselves do not become points of vulnerability that could be

used to threaten the entire IT infrastructure.

As a result of this proactive effort, HP has developed a solution, the HP ProtectTools Security

Manager, that not only meets the above requirements, but is also extensible and therefore can easily

grow to handle new threats and offer new technologies as they become available.

The security dilemma

Businesses trying to implement client device security face a dizzying number of choices that may not

always work well together. In addition, security solutions can be difficult to deploy and use. If a

technology is difficult to use, most users will avoid using it, and this further complicates the task of

making client devices secure.

Client device security options feature a number of capabilities based on a variety of technologies:

•Notebook and desktop computers can be configured with Smart Card readers

•The Trusted Platform Module , or TPM embedded security chip designed to the Trusted Computing

Group (TCG) standard, is available on a range of HP products

•Biometrics and RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) are expected to become more important as

those technologies mature and become more suitable for enterprise deployment

In addition, many client devices include security features that exist within the device BIOS. These

include features such as:

•Pre-boot authentication – ability to authenticate a user before allowing the system to boot

•Device configuration lock down

•Remote management capabilities

While these security features increasingly rely on established industry standards, and therefore better

integrate with other elements of IT security, there are still challenges that are keeping these features

from being widely deployed and used. These challenges include:

•Usability: technologies and features that are difficult to use

•Manageability: technologies and features that are difficult to manage, particularly on a large scale

•Awareness: IT managers and users are not aware of a feature, or do not understand its purpose

•Interoperability: features or services that span multiple technologies

•Extensibility: solutions that adapt as security needs grow and newer technologies and features

become available

The HP ProtectTools Security Manager is a security platform that addresses these challenges by using

add-on software modules, which provide important client security features. New features can easily

be added by installing new modules. This architecture gives users an easy to use all in one security

solution.

HP ProtectTools Security Manager

At the heart of the security strategy for business notebooks, desktops and workstations is the HP

ProtectTools Security Manager – this single client console application unifies security capabilities of

HP client PCs under a common architecture and single user interface. Today, a range of features is

being delivered that build on underlying hardware security building blocks such as TPM embedded

security chips designed to the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) standard and Smart Card technology.

Collectively these features are addressing business customer needs for better protection against

unauthorized PC access, as well as stronger protection for sensitive data stored locally or accessed

over a network.

Figure 1 - HP ProtectTools Security Manager Console

HP ProtectTools Security Manager embodies an extensible framework that is designed to allow

security software functionality to be added through add-on modules. This approach supports longer

term client device security strategy by enabling HP to introduce new functionality over time, but in a

highly integrated manner. Ultimately, customers benefit from security features that are easier to use,

manage, and provide enhanced value through features that play off of multiple security hardware

attributes of the client device.

HP ProtectTools Security Manager is only the first step. The application is a security platform that gets

it’s functionality via plug in software modules. A number of software modules are also being

introduced that provide better protection against unauthorized access to the PC, while making access

to the PC and network resources simple and convenient for authorized users.

Features include support for broad multifactor user authentication where a number of different security

technologies, such as Smart Cards, biometric fingerprint readers or TPM embedded security chips,

can be used to authenticate users. Users are provided with more secure as well as convenient

alternatives to passwords when logging into a Microsoft Windows PC. HP is also extending the HP

ProtectTools Security Manager feature set to include a client-centric single sign-on capability that

conveniently stores and protects many of the credentials users need daily to access websites, network

resources and applications.

Additional modules are also available that deliver a higher degree of client device security from the

moment power is turned on. By leveraging underlying security technologies such as a TPM

embedded security chip, HP is enabling better protection against unauthorized access even prior to

allowing the operating system to load.

Security Software Modules for HP ProtectTools

This section provides more details on specific add-on security software modules available for use with

the HP ProtectTools Security Manager. The modular architecture of the HP ProtectTools Security

Manger enables add-on modules to be selectively installed by the end user or IT administrator,

providing a high degree of flexibility to customize HP ProtectTools depending on security needs and

the underlying hardware configuration. Several of the add-on modules are adapted versions of

previously released stand-alone security applications. Integrated into the HP ProtectTools platform,

they form a holistic security solution. Going forward HP expects to continue to expand its client

security offerings with additional modules for the HP ProtectTools Security Manager.

Embedded Security for HP ProtectTools1

Embedded Security for HP ProtectTools is an add-on module for the HP ProtectTools security manager

that allows users to configure how they would like to use the TPM embedded security chip. This add-

on module is intended for client devices configured with a TPM embedded security chip designed to

the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) standard.

Figure 2 - Embedded Security for HP ProtectTools

Embedded Security for HP ProtectTools provides important client security functionality where a TPM

embedded security chip is used to help protect against unauthorized access to sensitive user data or

credentials. Features accessed through Embedded Security for HP ProtectTools include:

•Administrative functions such as taking ownership and managing the owner pass phrase

•User functions such as user enrollment and managing user pass phrases

•Feature configuration including setting up enhanced Microsoft EFS and Personal Secure Drive for

helping to protect user data management functions such as backing up and restoring the key

hierarchy as well as key migration

Embedded Security for HP ProtectTools is supported on all HP business notebooks, desktops and

workstations that can be configured with a TPM embedded security chip option.

1Support for the TPM embedded security chip was previously provided as part of a standalone application called HP ProtectTools Embedded

Security Manager. Beginning in early 2004, all subsequent support for the TPM embedded security chip will be delivered through the Embedded

Security for HP ProtectTools module and will require the HP ProtectTools Security Manager application.

take advantage of other HP

ProtectTools supported security

technologies such as Smart Cards

and TPM embedded security chips

Provides better protection against unauthorized access to the PC through features

that help protect the system from the moment power is turned on.

TPM embedded security chip pre-boot authentication requires that users securely

authenticate to the chip prior to allowing the system to boot, which helps protect

against attacks that exploit the ability to boot to alternative operating system

environments.

TPM embedded security chip enhanced Drivelock protects a hard drive from

unauthorized access even if removed from a system without requiring the user to

remember any additional passwords beyond the TPM embedded security chip user

pass phrase.

Working with Smart Card Security for HP ProtectTools, pre-boot Smart Card

authentication requires users to present their Smart Card prior to allowing the

system to boot.

Enabling access to BIOS security configuration from within the HP ProtectTools Security Manager

creates an integrated security solution and enables authorized users to control every aspect of security

management from a single application with a common user interface. The following table describes

the key BIOS security features2that become accessible from the HP ProtectTools Security Manager

using the BIOS Configuration Module.

embedded security chip

for user authentication.

Users need to input the

basic user key pass

phrase

Helps protects against unauthorized access to the PC by preventing

access to the computer by booting from a device other than the primary

hard drive.

Provides security benefits similar to a power-on password; however, by

allowing the user to use their TPM embedded security chip pass phrase,

users are not required to remember an additional password.

TPM embedded

enhanced

Drivelock

Requires a user to

authenticate to the TPM

embedded security chip

before a Drivelock

protected hard drive can

be accessed. A separate

Drivelock password is not

required.

Drivelock helps protect a hard drive from unauthorized access even if

physically removed from a system.

Allows very strong, random Drivelock passwords to be automatically

set in a way that is completely transparent to users (does not require the

user to remember another password)

Ties a hard drive to a specific system with a specific TPM embedded

security chip, preventing other systems from accessing the hard drive if

it is physically removed from the original system.

2Pre-boot authentication features are available on select platforms. Refer to platform specific specifications for more details.
