No. The biggest reason businesses picked thinkpads is their excellent security.
It takes hard core hack by hooking serial cable wires to the security chip and extract the data and decrypt with a software the data to get password while both machine is on.

Otherwise replace mainboard and hard drive. Yes, that right. That is the reason.

Dell have the security features as well if enabled.

Cheers, Wizard
