This Laptop Has Multiple Security Functions, Including a Built-in Tracker

Words by Gabriel John Pe

Since the pandemic started, there has been a sharp rise in cyberattacks worldwide. Most security experts attribute the spike to unsecured devices accessing crucial data in public spaces. These attacks range from unauthorized access to spoofing to something as extreme as ransomware.

Most cyber threats can be utilized by having a decent antivirus and antimalware software on your device. Unfortunately, that isn’t the case for physical attacks such as theft, and unauthorized use of your device.

Since you never know where threats can come from, you need a device that has the security to prevent any unwarranted snoopers. That’s where MSI’s Summit-series laptops come in.

TOBIIAWARE TO PREVENT UNWANTED EYES

The MSI Summit-series laptops have loads of security features built-in. One of these is tobii Aware. Tobii Aware is a security feature that uses the user’s presence to fortify the laptop. If the user is away from the screen it automatically locks your MSI Laptop from any unwarranted access. Additionally, it provides users privacy by automatically blurring the screen if you leave for a second, it also alerts users when it detects someone peeking behind them.

THE LAPTOP WITH A BUILT-IN TRACKER

Second and the most impressive security feature is the “Find your laptop” feature which MSI co-created with tile, the Bluetooth tracker professionals.

The Find with tile, allows users to connect their MSI Summit laptop on their phone and with a press of a button alerts the user where the laptop is. It can also determine where the laptop was last placed via the tile map on the app. Of course, it goes the other way around, with the user able to locate their phone via their MSI Summit laptops.

Aside from tobii Aware and File with tile, the laptops also have the newest hardware-based security standard TPM 2.0, a webcam, USB and SD Card slot switch lock, a fido certified fingerprint reader, and a separate LED notification for your webcam.
