Lenovo ThinkPad laptops and ThinkCentre desktops support Opal standard FDE drives, which are more secure, offer higher performance, and are easier to manage. Coupling these devices with SecureDoc for Lenovo introduces PBConnex (Exclusive Pre-Boot Network Authentication), support for AES-NI, and integration of Single Sign-On (SSO) from power-off through pre-boot authentication into Windows. These enhancements make full disk encryption easier to manage, use, and faster than ever.
