Abstract: Software services are managed from a single machine performing a service. Service providers offering SaaS applications solicit the single machine. Each service provider provides roles and device requirements for performing the corresponding SaaS. The single machine maintains a database that logs the software services offered by the service providers. Whenever a software service is needed, the single machine inventories its client devices for their resource capabilities and compares to the device requirements in the database. The database reveals the client machine(s) that best performs the role for the corresponding SaaS. Software services are thus integrated and managed from the single machine, thus allowing software services to be efficiently and quickly selected as network resources emerge.

Abstract: In one or more embodiments, one or more systems, method, and/or processes may receive processor instructions via an out-of-band system of an information handling system (IHS) and store the processor instructions via a storage device. For example, the processor instructions may be stored via a hidden partition of the storage device. While the out-of-band system receives the processor instructions, one or more of the IHS and a processor of the IHS may be in a low-power state. For example, the processor may not execute any instructions in the low-power state. While the out-of-band system receives the processor instructions, one or more of the IHS, an operating system of the IHS, and IHS firmware of the IHS may be impaired or inoperable, and the processor instructions may provide one or more remedies and/or repairs. In one or more embodiments, the IHS may be booted after the processor instructions are stored.

Abstract: In some examples, a computing device may receive (i) settings associated with one or more features of a basic input output system (BIOS) of the computing device and (ii) a device identifier that uniquely identifies the computing device. The computing device may determine a policy identifier that identifies a policy being implemented by the settings associated with the one or more features of the BIOS. The computing device may retrieve a public key associated with an organization that acquired the computing device and sending a request to a service to validate the policy. The request may include the policy identifier and the public key. After the computing device receives a response from the service indicating that the policy is valid, the computing device may initiate a reboot and modify, during the reboot, the one or more features of the BIOS of the computing device based on the settings.

For example, modifying the credential information may include modifying the credential information such that the IHS denies access to at least a portion of the IHS based on the credential information. In one instance, denying access to at least the portion of the IHS may include disabling at least one of password, biometric information associated with a user, and an encryption key. In another instance, denying access to at least the portion of the IHS may include remapping, independently of the processor, at least one human interface device.

Abstract: Embodiments provide access to enterprise data via a secured virtual environment hosted on an Information Handling System (IHS), with the integrity of the IHS validated prior to launching the virtual environment. The integrity of the IHS may also be continuously validated during operation of the launched virtual environment. Policies for accessing the enterprise data are stored in a secured memory that is isolated from the operating system of the IHS. A virtual environment is configured, according to the policies, with resources for a particular user to access the enterprise data. If the integrity of the IHS is validated by a trusted resource on the IHS, the virtual environment is launched. During operation of the virtual environment, the trusted resource periodically confirms the integrity of the IHS. If the integrity of the IHS is not verified or policy changes are identified, access to the secured workspace may be revoked.

Abstract: A secured container provides access to enterprise data while isolated from the operating system of an Information Handling System (IHS). The secured container remains secured during its delivery and deployment. A secured container is configured to provide a user of the IHS with access to enterprise data. The secured container is encrypted using a symmetrical key that is transmitted to a secured storage that is isolated from the operating system of the IHS via out-of-band communications. The encrypted secured container is digitally signed using an asymmetric key pair. The digital signature and the encrypted secured container are transmitted to the IHS via in-band communications. At the IHS, the public key of the asymmetric key pair is used to validate the digital signature and the private symmetric key is retrieved from secured storage to decrypt the secured container. Additional embodiments provide a technique for securely migrating a secured container between IHSs.

Abstract: A system is disclosed herein including a plurality of information handling systems (IHSs) coupled to and managed by a remote management system (RMS). According to one embodiment, each IHS may be configured to monitor data pertaining to the IHS, determine if the data triggers one or more events, and transmit a notification to the RMS if one or more events are triggered. The RMS may be configured to receive a notification transmitted from at least one IHS, select a policy to be applied to one or more of the IHSs based on the received notification, and transmit the selected policy to the one or more IHS s. The one or more IHSs may be further configured to receive the selected policy from the RMS, store the selected policy, and perform actions specified by the selected policy when policy rules specified by the selected policy are violated.

Abstract: A secured virtual environment provides access to enterprise data and may be configured remotely while isolated from the operating system of an Information Handling System (IHS). In secured booting of the IHS, references signatures are received via an out-of-band connection to the IHS. The reference signatures specify reference states for components of the IHS. Prior to launching a secured virtual environment, a trusted resource of the IHS, such as embedded controller isolated from the operating system, is queried for updated signatures specifying operating states of the component. The integrity of the IHS is validated based on comparisons of the respective reference signatures and updated signatures. If the integrity of the IHS is validated, a secured virtual environment is configured such that particular user may access the enterprise data according to applicable policies that may be periodically revalidated. The secured virtual environment may then be launched on the IHS.

Abstract: In some examples, a computing device may receive (i) settings associated with one or more features of a basic input output system (BIOS) of the computing device and (ii) a device identifier that uniquely identifies the computing device. The computing device may determine a policy identifier that identifies a policy being implemented by the settings associated with the one or more features of the BIOS. The computing device may retrieve a public key associated with an organization that acquired the computing device and sending a request to a service to validate the policy. The request may include the policy identifier and the public key. After the computing device receives a response from the service indicating that the policy is valid, the computing device may initiate a reboot and modify, during the reboot, the one or more features of the BIOS of the computing device based on the settings.
