HCL Infosystems has reportedly launched a new range of notebook computers in the country, featuring the company's 'Embedded Continuity and Control' or EC2 technology.
George Paul, Vice President of HCL Infosystems, called the new laptops as 'self healing computers' because he said, they are able to recover all data in less than a minute.
The new laptops are termed as the "Non-stop Series" by HCL.
According to company sources, the EC2 technology is mainly designed to protect the system from unwanted/sudden changes in system configuration, operating system, software settings, parameter settings, etc that result from viruses, user errors, and system crashes.
Paul however did say that the EC2 technology is not an alternative to other security measures, including antivirus, firewall, software update patches, and data back up, among others.
The new laptops with EC2 technology automatically store data in a
back-up space in the machine, and update their own working states at regular intervals.
As such, there is a complete record of all data, including software and user data, residing inside the laptops, at any given point in time.
In case of a system crash, malfunction, or accidental loss of data, a user can reload the previously recorded image, and get the computer working like it was when the image was recorded.
Prices for the "Non-stop Series" laptops start at Rs 27,990.
