NOTE
Intel RPAT requires an Intel vPro technology-enabled computer that has an Intel
RPAT-enabled BIOS, a connection with a power source, and the Internet. This
service operates via a wired LAN connection only and requires a direct Internet
connection (no proxy server) with the ability to connect to external Internet
locations (locations outside the local network). A remote service provider
supporting Intel RPAT must be used to perform remote management. The Intel
Remote PC Assist Wizard application and third party remote management software
tools supporting Intel RPAT must be deployed on the target computer running one
of the supported operating systems in order to perform remote management
operations. Use of the technology may require configuration by the purchaser.
Intel RPAT is not available in all locations or on all computer systems.

Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
The Nuvoton* WPCT210 TPM 1.2, revision 103 component on Intel Desktop Board
DQ57TM is designed to enhance platform security above-and-beyond the capabilities
of today’s software by providing a protected space for key operations and other
security critical tasks. Using both hardware and software, the TPM protects encryption
and signature keys at their most vulnerable stages—operations when the keys are
being used unencrypted in plain-text form. The TPM is specifically designed to shield
unencrypted keys and platform authentication information from software-based
attacks.
For information about enabling and activating the TPM, refer to the Trusted Platform
Module (TPM) Quick Reference Guide included with the board.
Fan Speed Control and Hardware Monitoring
The features of the hardware monitoring and fan speed control include:
• Intel Quiet System Technology, delivering acoustically-optimized thermal
management
• Thermal sensors in the processor and the Intel PCH, as well as near the CPU
voltage regulators and system memory
• Monitoring of system voltages to detect levels above or below acceptable values
• Thermally monitored closed-loop fan control for all three fans that can adjust fan
speed as needed
• Supports for chassis security feature that detects if the chassis cover has been
removed. The security feature uses a mechanical switch on the chassis that can be
connected to the chassis intrusion header on the Desktop Board.
