Intel is taking a new tack with the latest commercial PC chips announced last month: Instead of touting speed and performance, the company emphasized the chip’s security features.

The chip giant has been working with security vendors in recent years to implement hardware-level protections on the chips to protect laptops from ransomware and malware attacks. The new 13th Gen Intel Core vPro processors include under-the-hood improvements at the firmware and operating system levels that boost system protection and management, the company says.
