What is Intel Management and Security 5.1.0.1167?

[harrycohanrosalia]

We must show proof of vendor support for all software on our computers. When we do a software audit for one of our PCs, an application called 'Intel Management and Security 5.1.0.1167' is listed on the audit. What is the function (in layman's terms) of this application? What's the weblink for obtaining updates for it?

This is the Intel Management and Security Service that is bundled by OEM's with Intel vPro platforms. The function is to provide information to the user about the state of vPro technologies and to provide approriate control over them.
The software is distributed by the OEM so you should check thier site for updates specific to the platform you are using.
