It is all about security!

Do you know where your notebook is at that moment? Are you really sure? If not then you have a good reason to start worring. It can happen quite fast that your notebook gets stolen e.g. when you are waiting at the train platform and you put your notebook bag between your legs. With a UMPC the probability of stealing would be less, as you can put your UMPC in your jacket where nobody thinks one can carry a notebook! Against theft you are therefore better protected with a UMPC.

Virus. Spam emails. Worms. Those are words we do not like to hear in connection with our PC or notebook. Therefore the main question is how we can adequately protect us against those attacks? Firewalls are certainly a good start, but might not be sufficient, especially when dealing with highly sensitive data. Some processors, like the VIA C7®-M processor offer special security features, that exceed firewalls in their performance. E.g. in the VIA C7®-M processor is built a security engine, that enables military-grade protection. In addition, with a software, the so-called StrongBox you can create your own virtual drive, put in your sensitive data and lock it up. This is not only a protection agains attacks but also agains theft in general. Somebody who accesses your notebook won’t be able to open the locked drive!

So, it is better to rename the slogan: It is all about UMPCs!
