How Google's New Chrome Os Will Revolutionize Your Pc's Security
Let's face it - a good chunk of your business day
, regardless of what industry you're in, is probably spent in front of your computer. It's where you keep all of your sensitive files, passwords, programs, and much more.
Have you ever had to deal with your PC failing due to a web-based virus? Or perhaps you've had your PC stolen, and have had to change all of your passwords as quickly as you could to prevent further foul play?
These types of issues can be huge burdens to businesses big and small, which is why businesspeople everywhere should pay close attention to Google's new Chrome Operating System.
About Google's Chrome Operating System:
The Chrome Operating System was announced in mid-2009, and has been deep in development ever since, with an eye to being operational before 2010 is over.
This operating system is designed primarily for netbooks, but will be compatible with all types of PCs, including desktops and laptops. The Chrome OS will be absolutely free to use, and is built on the Linux platform.
Why Google's Chrome Operating System means big positive changes to your business:
What makes the Chrome OS really unique is its structure: instead of being housed on your hard drive, it's an almost-entirely web-based operating system. Which means:
All updates will automatically occur on Google's side - you'll never have to update your operating system again.
All applications will be hosted by Google, and will be completely free to use. Plus, your files can never become infected by viruses or corrupted, as they'll never be on your hard drive in the first place.
All files will be hosted online, so no one can ever take them by stealing your laptop.
As you can see, the Chrome Operating System's unique architecture makes it inherently stronger from a security perspective than traditional OSs like Windows. There are other benefits as well:
Built on Linux: We said earlier that, as all applications are hosted online, there's much less that can be affected by a damaging virus. Even better is the fact that this system is built on Linux: as 90% of computers in the world use Windows, most viruses are designed for Windows as well. Having an operating system based on Linux immediately cuts down on your vulnerability.
Have a computer hardware problem? Just switch computers for a seamless experience: With your current solution, there's not much flexibility. Your home computer and your work computer likely have different settings, different files and different programs. With a web-based OS like Chrome, however, you can have exactly the same experience wherever you are! So if you have a hardware problem with your computer, you can be back up and running in seconds simply by logging on from a new computer!
Up and running in seconds: Busy businesspeople know what a pain it is to wait for minutes as your computer is booting up. The Chrome OS is designed to be up and running in literally seconds - as much of it is online, there's not much to load from your hard drive initially!
