Lenovo has announced an expanded partnership with IGEL, a provider of secure endpoint operating systems, to enhance endpoint management, control, security, and the end-user experience. As part of the partnership, Lenovo ThinkPad L14 Gen 4 Intel and AMD notebooks, as well as the ThinkCentre Neo50q thin client and M75q tiny desktop, will come with an integrated license of IGEL OS. This means that Lenovo devices will now offer a full IGEL OS license out-of-the-box, making it easier for customers to procure and manage secure endpoints globally.
IGEL OS is a Linux-based operating system that supports a Zero Trust approach to security, protecting against endpoint vulnerabilities targeted by bad actors. With the integrated IGEL OS, Lenovo devices deliver a first-class user experience while providing seamless management. By combining IGEL’s enterprise-class OS with Lenovo’s industry-leading commercial devices, organizations can secure their employee computing experiences and simplify manageability and control for their IT teams.
The availability of Lenovo devices with integrated IGEL OS is a significant development for businesses worldwide. Thomas Alt, Deputy Head of Infrastructure as a Service at Debeka, a Germany-based insurance services leader, praised the combination of Lenovo ThinkPad notebooks and IGEL OS, which enabled 2,000 employees to work securely and productively from home. Alt mentioned that the resulting IGELbooks have given employees the freedom to work from anywhere with powerful devices purpose-built for enterprise access to virtual environments. The IT team at Debeka found it easier than ever to manage and ensure high security.
The expanded partnership between IGEL and Lenovo underscores the importance of secure and efficient endpoint solutions in today’s business landscape. By integrating IGEL OS into its devices, Lenovo is addressing the growing need for advanced security measures and simplified management. The integrated license of IGEL OS is available directly from Lenovo and can be obtained through any authorized Lenovo channel.
As the world moves towards a future of end-user computing, the partnership between IGEL and Lenovo sets new standards for endpoint security, efficiency, and sustainability. With IGEL OS integrated into Lenovo devices, organizations can better secure their computing environments and provide their employees with a seamless and productive user experience. This partnership is a testament to both companies’ commitment to delivering innovative solutions that drive organizations forward.
