Intel’s highlights in relation to the CES are certainly the presentation of the first Tiger Lake-H processors as well as further and first details about the Rocket Lake-S and Alder Lake. But Intel also has news to announce in other product areas.

The innovations include new models of Pentium and Celeron processors, which will be used in the lower price range for notebooks. The processors are based on the Tremont architecture. For the Pentium and Celeron processors, Intel remains true to its line and deactivates hyperthreading here, but offers two or four cores depending on the model.

In the current times, the cheap notebooks for home office and homeschooling are Use particularly in demand. Intel describes the market as the fastest growing. The Chromebooks with the new processors, which should also be available shortly, are highlighted.

In the form of some vPro models with special business functions, Intel is now converting the Tiger Lake processors to this market. Together with the Evo platform, Intel sets certain requirements for the hardware in a catalog of requirements.

The vPro models of the processors are primarily characterized by corresponding software functions that interact with the Hardware, for example, should increase security (Intel Hardware Shield) or make it easier for administrators to manage individual clients (Intel Endpoint Management Assistant).

The Intel Hardware Shield was introduced a few years ago Time introduced. Until now, however, this function was optional for the vPro models in the implementation – for the eleventh core generation or the other models based on Comet Lake, the Intel Hardware Shield for vPro is mandatory. The hardware shield protects against attacks at the firmware level. If, for example, manipulation in the BIOS is detected, this is of course reported and the system is reset to the last status, which supposedly has not yet been attacked.
