Attacks have evolved—and HP Z is prepared

Even though AI advancements help optimize our daily work, they also improve opportunities for threat actors. Fortunately, HP Z AI workstations offer hardware-enforced threat containment security through Sure Click Enterprise1 and Wolf Pro Security.2

AI is supercharging attacks

Bad actors are using AI to make attacks (like phishing and spear phishing) more credible and harder to spot. This will make traditional security defenses too little too late and means that workstation users—whose endpoints can make particularly attractive targets, since they work with sensitive data and information—can’t be expected to catch AI-powered attacks.

75%

of security professionals witnessed an increase in attacks over the past 12 months, with 85% attributing this rise to bad actors using generative AI.4

Factors steer endpoint protection toward isolation security

To reduce the attack surface and create a more secure experience, the focus will need to shift away from existing approaches and toward the zero-trust defenses available in HP Z workstations.

“The traditional methods of securing data are no longer sufficient as cybercriminals constantly evolve their tactics to exploit vulnerabilities in security systems.”

HP Z works with Intel to deliver research, initiatives, and technologies that help protect data and earn trust through responsiveness, accountability, and transparency.

Why HP’s threat isolation technology works

HP Z workstations support threat isolation technology, which defeats phishing attacks, including those using AI, to stop ransomware in its tracks. This approach protects power users no matter what the attack vector (corporate or personal email, browsing, or USB drives), even if the device isn’t on the internet. And it does so in ways that are scalable and unobtrusive to users.

Threat containment:

  • Micro-virtual machines (µVM) securely open many commonly used file types (e.g., Microsoft Word, PDF, and HTML files) in a secure, hardware-enforced “sandbox” to effectively contain malware before it can infect the PC. Plus, when the task is completed, the µVM is deleted, taking the malware with it.    
  • Introspection identifies unseen attack types and provides a clear look at the malware behavior. 
  • Analytics and reporting surface insights into the techniques, tactics, and processes of the attack to provide security teams with updated threat intelligence.

Secure your endpoints for the AI era
