M.2 solid-state drive security

To protect the computer from unauthorized security attacks, refer to the following tips to enhance security:

• Set a power-on password as well as a hard disk password. For security, a longer password is

recommended.

• The M.2 solid-state drive built into your computer can be protected by UEFI BIOS. To provide reliable

security, use the security chip and a security program with the Trusted Platform Module (TPM)

management feature. See “Setting the security chip” on page 49.

• If a Disk Encryption storage drive is installed in your computer, ensure to protect the contents of your

computer from unauthorized access by use of drive encryption software, such as Microsoft Windows

BitLocker

Drive Encryption.

• Before you dispose of, sell, or hand over your computer, delete the data stored on it. For more

information, see “Deleting data from your storage drive” on page 52.

Using Windows BitLocker Drive Encryption

To help protect your computer against unauthorized access, use the drive encryption software, such as

Windows BitLocker Drive Encryption.

Windows BitLocker Drive Encryption (referred to as BitLocker) is an integral security feature of some editions

of the Windows operating system. It can help you protect the operating system and data stored on your

computer, even if your computer is lost or stolen. BitLocker can encrypt all user and system files, including

the swap and hibernation files.

BitLocker uses the TPM to provide enhanced protection for your data and to ensure early boot component

integrity. A compatible TPM is defined as a V2.0 TPM.

To check the BitLocker status, go to Control Panel, view Control Panel by Category, and click System and

Security ➙ BitLocker Drive Encryption.

For more information, see the help system of the Windows operating system, or search for “Microsoft

Windows BitLocker Drive Encryption Step-by-Step Guide” on the Microsoft Web site.

Disk Encryption solid-state drive

Some models might contain the Disk Encryption solid-state drive. This encryption technology helps to

protect your computer against security attacks on media, NAND flash, or device controllers by use of a

hardware encryption chip. For the efficient use of the encryption feature, set a hard disk password for the

internal storage drive.

Setting the security chip

Strict security requirements are imposed on network client computers that transfer confidential information

electronically. Depending on the options you ordered, your computer might have an embedded security chip

(a cryptographic microprocessor). With the security chip, you can do the following:

• Protect your data and system

• Strengthen access controls

• Secure communications

Before you start, print these instructions.
