Intel vPro is a platform of hardware and firmware technologies designed to enhance the security and manageability of business PCs. It is an umbrella marketing term used by Intel for a large collection of computer hardware technologies, including VT-x, VT-d, Trusted Execution Technology (TXT), and Intel Active Management Technology (AMT). PCs that support vPro have a vPro-enabled processor, a vPro-enabled chipset, and a vPro-enabled BIOS as their main elements. Some key features of vPro include:

• Hardware-based security: vPro offers comprehensive hardware-level security features, including Intel Authenticate and discrete Trusted Platform Module (dTPM) chips.

• Remote management: vPro allows IT departments to remotely manage systems in their fleets, saving time and energy. Intel AMT, a set of hardware-based features targeted at businesses, allows remote access to the PC for management and security tasks, even when an OS is down or PC power is off.

• Improved stability: vPro allows for improved stability thanks to IT-managed system changes.

• Performance: vPro offers enterprise-class performance, with multi-core, multi-threaded Xeon or Core processors.

vPro is primarily employed to save IT departments time and energy, and it was originally created to streamline the process of turning enterprise desktop computers on and off. It is found in a wide variety of devices, including thin-and-light business laptops, mobile workstations, and high-end gaming hardware.
