At the processor level, Intel® Core Ultra™ processors deliver comprehensive protection across multiple layers, leveraging four powerful security engines (Intel® Silicon Security Engine; Intel® Graphics Security Controller; Converged Security & Manageability Engine; and Intel® Partner Security Engine). These processors also unlock the potential for AI-powered security tools, enabling advanced capabilities such as anti-phishing, memory scanning, ransomware detection and on-device security machine learning.
Bufferzone, for instance, has developed a no-cloud, anti-phishing solution that uses the Neural Processing Unit (NPU) in Intel® Core Ultra™ processors for local processing. The approach reduces cloud costs for Bufferzone’s customers, mitigates privacy concerns and improves the user experience through lower latency compared to cloud-based solutions.5
Similarly, CrowdStrike is working with Intel to push the boundaries of how much security data analysis can take place on device. Leveraging AI and the Intel® Core Ultra™ processor’s NPU, CrowdStrike is accelerating the detection and investigation of cyber threats and addressing CPU, memory and network challenges.6
Investing in Intel-powered AI PCs equips organisations with a multi-year security foundation, helping them avoid the financial and reputational damage of breaches. By combining proactive threat detection, innovative hardware and seamless integration with AI-driven tools, Intel empowers businesses to navigate cybersecurity with confidence.
