HP Wolf Protect and Trace is designed to help IT secure endpoints that are lost or stolen, enabling IT to locate devices and take action to lock or erase data on those devices.

According to HP, the service uses “state of the art cryptography to ensure multiple IT approvers must be independently involved to remotely lock devices and erase data.” Typically, only one IT admin can take such actions, making the system vulnerable if that one IT admin is compromised.

The service also helps IT respond more quickly to reported lost or stolen devices with monitoring through HP TechPulse Dashboard, which HP calls a single, integrated analytics platform.

The service will be available in December through HP channel partners and HP direct, the company says.

In addition, the company says it has been granted the ISO/IEC 20243 certification for both enterprise printers and cartridges, a set of requirements and recommendations for mitigating maliciously tainted and counterfeit products.
