Patent number: 10489011Abstract: In one embodiment, an information handling system may include a processor, a display that may provide a user interface allowing a user to select one or more system utilities to be accessed, memory that may include a plurality of memory partitions storing a plurality of system utilities, and a management controller. During a configuration of the information handling system, the management controller may receive a request from the user via the user interface to access one or more selected system utilities; identify one or more memory partitions storing the one or more selected system utilities; and cause the display to display one or more user-selectable icons corresponding to the one or more identified memory partitions to provide the user access to the one or more identified memory partitions.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2014Date of Patent: November 26, 2019Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Jon Robert Hass, Charles Terrence Perusse, Jr., Elie Antoun Jreij, Abhay Arjun Salunke

Patent number: 9183395Abstract: Firmware updates at an information handling system flash memory device, such as provisioning information stored on a USB device, are securely performed by using a buffer memory and a secured code. An application running on a CPU generates a firmware update and a security code, such as a ciphered hash code based on the firmware update, stores the firmware update and security code in a buffer, and informs a management processor of the update. The management processor analyzes the firmware update to authorize copying of the update from the buffer to the flash memory device. For instance, the management processor creates the security code from the firmware update and compares the created code with the security code stored in the buffer to validate the firmware update.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2015Date of Patent: November 10, 2015Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Terry Wayne Liles, Charles T. Perusse, Jr., Yong Cao, Abhay Arjun Salunke, Marshal F. Savage
