Active Management Technology
When used with third-party management and security applications, Intel Active
Management Technology (Intel AMT) allows business owners and IT organizations to
better discover, heal, and protect their networked computing assets.
Some of the features of Intel AMT include:
• Out-of-band (OOB) system access, to discover assets even while PCs are
powered off
• Remote trouble-shooting and recovery, which allows remote diagnosis and
recovery of systems after OS failures
• Hardware-based agent presence checking that automatically detects and alerts
when critical software agents have been stopped or are missing
• Proactive network defense, which uses filters to block incoming threats while
isolating infected clients before they impact the network
• Remote hardware and software asset tracking, helping to track computer assets
and keep virus protection up-to-date
