AMT provides more security and functionality than ASF. AMT alsoprovides support for multiple power policies and supports configuration of the maximum Power State where Intel AMT will operate. AMT provides mutual authentication between client and console along with encrypted communication to guard against unauthorized access to networks and PCs, along with the ability to read hardware and software asset information even from PCs that are turned off or down.
