BIOS Users/Passwords, and One Step Log-On

One-Step Logon
Pre-boot has been enhanced by combining security tokens (such as biometrics,
smart cards and passwords) and enablement of multi-user access. HP business
notebooks offer a range of pre-boot authentication solutions, allowing businesses
to provide an additional layer of protection against unauthorized access, including
attackers attempting to boot the system from a device other than the primary hard
drive.
Enhanced pre-boot security is an integral component of the overall authentication
process; user accounts created in Windows are also automatically made available
in the pre-boot environment. With multi-factor pre-boot authentication, once the
notebook is powered on, the end-user is required to provide a user name, then
authenticate using one or more factors (such as a password, a fingerprint swipe or
smart card). The notebook then logs the user all the way into Windows, a process
known as One-Step Logon.
