Intel goes phishing with vPro (video)

One of the advantages of Intel's vPro business PC platform is that it provides room to a virtual security client that monitors network traffic and the system's security settings.

The difference, as Intel demonstrates in the video below, can save you $49bn... if you ever had that in the first place.

Comments

So basically there's a host-based intrusion detection system running on another partition. Has Microsoft Security got so bad, that another operating system is required to secure the "primary" operating system?

Furthermore, what's funny is how the user was using a "slighly older" web browser, but had up to date IDS signtures. If you have to keep something up to date, why not just patch your system? It's a lot cheaper.
