HP has unveiled all new and versatile all-in-one point-of-sale (POS) system, powered by Windows 10: the HP ElitePOS.
The ElitePOS is an innovative, sleek modular design that modernizes the retail POS device. It features a receipt printer that integrates into the column stand and a magnetic stripe reader that can be built into the display.
The ElitePOS has been crafted to withstand extensive usage, and is designed to pass various military standards – or MIL-STD – tests can handle spills by channelling liquid away from the device components while providing efficient cooling with side venting for improved reliability.
The ElitePOS is powered by Windows 10 or Windows IoT and features a speedy DDR4 RAM and 7th generation Intel Core processors with optional vPro technology.
For security purposes, the ElitePOS delivers both hardware-based and integrated software security features, including:
- BIOS-level device security to provide protection in the event of a malware attack with HP Sure Start Gen3, the industry’s first self-healing BIOS, and HP BIOSphere Gen3, the industry-leading firmware ecosystems.
- User authentication technology, including an optional fingerprint reader with Windows Hello, to help prevent unauthorized access; Credential Guard for secure user authentication and password protection, and Device Guard, which lets IT managers create rules to run only signed, trusted, and approved applications on the POS system to help protect against walk-up and low-level attacks through USB ports.
- Physical security of the device itself with an optional bolt-to-counter configuration, or VESA mounting and K-Lock features.
