“Hybrid work has made remote management at scale more complex, yet more essential. The cloud has helped but hasn’t solved IT’s ability to manage devices that are powered down or offline. HP Wolf Connect’s highly resilient connection opens new doors to remote device management, enabling efficient and effective management of dispersed workforces.”

Dr. Ian Pratt, Global Head of Security for Personal Systems, HP Inc.

“IT teams need a better way to deal with the increase in lost or stolen devices,” continues Pratt. “Before today, solutions relied on PCs being on or connected to the internet, but HP Wolf Connect now provides a highly resilient mobile connection to find, lock, and erase lost or stolen devices even if they are disconnected or powered down."

Dr. Ian Pratt, Global Head of Security for Personal Systems at HP Inc.

“This is particularly crucial in industries where devices may contain PII (personally identifiable information) or intellectual property. By adding Wolf Connect to HP Wolf Protect and Trace, teams can accurately report where and when devices were lost, and how long it took to lock or erase them.”

“The shift to hybrid work requires a move away from old perimeter-focused thinking. To close gaps, organizations must put the endpoint front and center of any security strategy. Adopting hardware-enforced security features and protection above, in, and below the OS – such as application isolation – will be key for protecting users without impinging on the freedoms that hybrid work allows.”

Dr. Ian Pratt, Global Head of Security for Personal Systems at HP Inc.

“In the current economic climate, it is essential that CISOs are intentional about where to invest. As the hybrid workforce continues to evolve, so will the threats that attackers deploy against them. Defenders can’t afford to stand still, so investing in the right tools is critical, as is ensuring that you keep the endpoint front and center in any hybrid security strategy.”
