Features and Benefits of Intel vPro® for Business

Enhanced AI Performance

AI PCs with Intel® Core™ Ultra processors equip employees with AI-driven enhancements for smoother collaboration, improved content creation, and the power to tackle complex workloads efficiently. With built-in AI acceleration, these processors optimize tasks like real-time transcription, automated summaries, intelligent search, and AI-enhanced creative tools for editing, design, and coding.

In addition to boosting productivity, Intel® Core™ Ultra processors enhance security and system efficiency with AI-infused threat detection and power optimization, ensuring a seamless and secure computing experience. Whether managing large datasets, creating high-quality visuals, or collaborating in hybrid environments, these processors provide the performance and intelligence needed to stay ahead.

Multi-Layered Security

Intel vPro® Security integrates AI-powered threat detection to protect against ransomware, cryptojacking, and software supply chain attacks at the hardware level with Intel® Threat Detection Technology (Intel® TDT).

With multilayer security, Intel vPro® safeguards devices, reducing attack surfaces and preventing malware injections. Firmware-level protections defend against sophisticated threats, while Intel vPro® Enterprise for Windows enables remote access even if the operating system is down.

With Intel vPro®, businesses gain real-time protection, minimal performance impact, and peace of mind against emerging cyber threats.

Remote Fleet Management

With hybrid work becoming the norm, managing a dispersed PC fleet is more complex and costly. Intel vPro® Enterprise for Windows simplifies IT operations with Intel® Active Management Technology (Intel® AMT), providing advanced hardware-based remote management tools.

IT teams can:

• Remotely repair corrupted drivers, software, or even a non-responsive operating system.
• Monitor and manage all endpoints, regardless of power state, operating system status, or connectivity.
• Automate software updates and patches remotely, minimizing user disruptions.
• Reduce costs by avoiding up to 90% of hardware-related onsite visits and resolving issues 83% faster.

Intel vPro® also supports sustainable IT practices by allowing remote power management, reducing energy costs, and improving overall efficiency - all while keeping devices secure and up to date.

Greater Stability

Intel vPro® ensures business-class stability and reliability, making it easier to maintain and scale your PC fleet while transitioning between operating system generations on your schedule.

At the core of this stability is the Intel® Stable IT Platform Program (Intel® SIPP), which keeps hardware components consistent for 15 months from product launch.

With multistep validation and corporate platform support for multiple operating systems, IT teams can confidently scale without revalidation concerns. A 2024 IT decision-maker survey found that Intel vPro® stability helps reduce device-management-related desk tickets by up to 40%, improving efficiency and reducing IT overhead. ¹
