Intel has launched its 13th-gen Core vPro processors, targeting enterprises with higher core counts, AI security functionality, and remote management features. The chip giant claims that the new platform reduces the attack surface by close to 70% compared to four-year-old PCs. However, the real value behind Intel's vPro line up remains remote management and security functionality, which is not new. Intel's push for the new lineup comes as PC demand continues to slow, and enterprises rethink their remote work policies amid mass layoffs.
Intel has launched its 13th Gen Core vPRO series, which includes more than 170 notebooks, desktops, and entry workstations from partners such as Acer, ASUS, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Fujitsu, Panasonic, and Samsung. The new vPRO platform offers comprehensive security, necessary hardware for companies in need of a PC refresh, and increased productivity for all employees. The platform is based on the 13th Gen Intel Core processors, offering a hybrid architecture with new Performance-cores, more Efficient-cores on select offerings, smarter task classification with Intel Thread Director, and better energy efficiency with Intel Dynamic Tuning Technology.
Intel has unveiled its latest vPro platform for its 13th Gen Core series, offering updated hardware-level security features to protect against ransomware and malware attacks. The new platform promises up to 93% efficacy in detecting ransomware attacks in real-time and a smooth transition to Windows 11. The flagship Raptor Lake architecture offers a 70% reduction in attack surface compared to the previous Comet Lake platform. The vPro support is available in selected SKUs of the Core i9, Core i7, and Core i5 series for desktop and mobile platforms.
