HP Inc. has unveiled several new enterprise-level computers with above industry-grade security features.
The company has released its HP EliteDesk 800 series, a line of new commercial desktops, and HP EliteOne 800 AiO (all-in-one) as part of its revamped secure and manageable PC lineup for the younger working generation.
“The millennial workforce is clamoring for sexy devices that inspire creativity and an open exchange of ideas, and employers are demanding technology that looks beautiful in their open floor plans yet are powerful and secure with no barriers to their employees’ productivity,” says Alex Cho, vice president and general manager of commercial PCs at HP Inc., in a Mar. 7 press release. “The newest lineup of Elite desktops and AiOs reflects the vision of a business while reflecting the desires of employees, pairing beautiful designs with exciting features and performance that meet and exceed security requirements critical to all business environments.”
