Businesses have more options than ever to consider when choosing a device in today’s evolving workforce. Not only do they need specific features and performance, they also require flexible technologies that can be used in multiple environments, are easily managed and help them secure their biggest asset—their data—and all accomplished with ever-shrinking IT budgets. And while the risk and fallout of cyber breaches have dominated recent headlines, the truth is that security has never been anything other than a major consideration for most executives.

More than 200,000 new malware variations are being developed daily and many of these are being created to target midmarket and small businesses. This means that enterprise level security is no longer solely the domain of Fortune 500 companies, but needs to be a vital consideration for every organization, business and institution. And, in the U.S. alone, security breaches cost US organizations an estimated $25.8 billion annually, yet many fail to effectively recognize and prioritize the next big wave of risk to IT security from unknown threats

The OptiPlex brand began it all for Dell and continues to be one of our largest lines of business and today we’re excited  to announce two new additions to the  portfolio–the OptiPlex 3030 All-in-One and the OptiPlex 9030 All-in-One. The OptiPlex 9030 All-in-One is the most secure commercial all-in-one desktop  on the market today and offers  comprehensive encryption, advanced authentication and malware prevention from a single source.
