Get Modern with Windows 8 and the new Office
Windows 8 and the new Office offer enhanced security features like built-in firewall, anti-virus, and rootkit
malware protection.
Plus, BitLocker and BitLocker To Go data encryption helps protect data on hard drives and USBs. You can
even set Rights Management permission on your emails and attachments.
Stay connected to the office with Windows 8 and the new Office. Both are touch-friendly, and optimized for
mobile devices.
Access files from SkyDrive Pro, edit on any browser using Office Web Apps, and sync to your devices for
offline access.
Easily search across files, apps, and settings – just start typing. Use familiar desktop apps you know and
love, or explore new apps in the Windows Store.
Open PDF files with Word, or let Excel recommend the best chart based on your data.
You can even add Office 365 that offers cloud services for files sharing and hosting HD video conferencing.
Whether you prefer a notebook, tablet, or desktop, you have the option to use touch, keyboard and mouse
with a full, consistent experience of both Windows 8 and the new Office.
And with Office 365, you can use Office on up to 5 PCs and 5 mobile devices.
