Abstract: Systems and procedures are provided for transferring a service identifier for use by an IHS (Information Handling System), where technical support is provided to the IHS based on the service identifier. During factory provisioning of the IHS, a signed inventory certificate is uploaded to the IHS that includes an inventory identifying factory installed components of the IHS. Upon deployment of the IHS, a hardware component is removed, where the service identifier of the IHS is associated to the removed component. Upon installing a replacement hardware component, a request is initiated to transfer the association of the service identifier from the removed hardware component to the replacement hardware component.

Abstract: In general, embodiments of the invention relate to implementing a secure boot process in information handling systems that supports both an external root of trust (eRoT) and an internal root of trust (RoT). Further, embodiments of the invention relate to binding a management controller to a specific chassis and, in the case where the eRoT is used, to an eRoT. When the management controller and the chassis are provisioned according to one or more embodiments of the invention, security checks may be performed by management controller executing an initial program loader (IPL) using the aforementioned bindings. If the bindings are not present or do not match, then the boot process halts and the user is unable to use the information handling system.

Abstract: Embodiments validate the secure assembly and delivery of IHSs (Information Handling Systems) that are installed in a shared chassis, such as two 1RU (rack unit) servers installed in a shared 2RU chassis. An inventory certificate is retrieved that was uploaded to a first IHS of the IHSs installed in the shared chassis during factory provisioning of the first IHS. The inventory certificate specifies factory installed hardware components installed in each of the IHSs of the shared chassis. A validation process of the first IHS collects an inventory of hardware components detected by each of the IHSs of the shared chassis. The validation process compares the collected inventory of detected hardware components of the IHSs against the factory installed hardware components specified in the inventory certificate in order to validate the detected hardware components as the same hardware components installed during factory assembly of each of the IHSs.

The wearable system can be programmed to permit user interaction with interactable objects in a field of regard (FOR) of a user. The FOR includes a portion of the environment around the user that is capable of being perceived by the user via the AR system. The system can determine a group of interactable objects in the FOR of the user and determine a pose of the user. The system can update, based on a change in the pose or a field of view (FOV) of the user, a subgroup of the interactable objects that are located in the FOV of the user and receive a selection of a target interactable object from the subgroup of interactable objects. The system can initiate a selection event on the target interactable object.

Abstract: An information handling system for providing comprehensive remote authorized access to multiple equipment in a datacenter. A mobile device security credential is first authenticated before access information is configured in the mobile device using a short-range wireless interface. The configured access information is mapped to the equipment and the corresponding access token and encryption keys from the equipment are received by the mobile device. The mobile device uses the access token and the encryption keys to simultaneously access the equipment through a long-range wireless interface. The simultaneous access includes parallel accessing of the equipment at a next accessing instance without requiring re-authentication. With the accessed equipment, the mobile device manages the accessed equipment based on the configured access information.

Abstract: An online software platform (OSP) classifies challenges to digital rules into buckets according to respective challenged digital rules that were applied to produce respective challenged resources. The OSP computes respective statistics for the buckets. Each bucket may have a corresponding statistic associated with the bucket based on a current total number of challenges that have been classified into that bucket. The OSP ranks the buckets according to the respective statistics of the buckets. The OSP may correct, based on the ranking of the buckets, the respective challenged stored digital rule of the selected bucket without yet correcting the respective challenged digital rule of at least one of the other buckets. This correction is stored and included in digital rules to be used to produce resources going forward.
