Business Tech News Mobile Phones Internet & Security Computers & Tablets Smart Life Tech Leaders Home Theater & Entertainment Software & Apps Social Media Streaming Gaming Women in Gaming Lenovo computer users—and the businesses that provide those computers—are getting AI-powered endpoint security options to improve protection against "modern threats." One of the biggest threats to enterprises of all sizes is the people using the computers from which the business operates. Now, Lenovo is extending AI-powered security to those endpoints. SentinelOne and Lenovo announced the expansion of their partnership in a press release on Monday. The new multi-year collaboration will allow Lenovo to tap into SentinelOne's Singularity Platform and Purple AI to provide automated security features to enterprise computers at the weakest point of risk, the endpoint. These capabilities will be part of Lenovo's ThinkShield enterprise security solution and will be installed on new PCs and available as an update for existing PCs. Lenovo's new AI-powered computers for Enterprises are also getting AI-powered security protections. Lenovo While this isn't a new partnership for Lenovo, extending the agreement between the companies expands Lenovo's security options. As part of the agreement, Lenovo also plans to add new Managed Detection and Response capabilities that tap into AI and existing end-point detection and response features to provide automated response to threats. For example, Lenovo estimates that more than 921 password attacks happen per second. This new collaboration is designed to help protect against those and other attacks that could put your enterprise at risk. “The endpoint remains a primary vector of cyberattacks and the most critical part of a business’ ongoing operations. By working with market leaders like Lenovo, we can rapidly scale AI-powered security to millions of PCs and servers across the globe,” said Akhil Kapoor, Vice President Embedded Business, SentinelOne. “It’s an opportunity for Lenovo and SentinelOne to give Lenovo customers a clear security and resiliency advantage by delivering intelligent devices that defend themselves in real time.” You can learn more about Lenovo's ThinkSheild capabilities on the company's website.
