  • Systems and methods for modifying system pre-boot interface configuration based on usage characteristics of an individual information handling system
    Patent number: 11907372
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided that may be implemented to monitor unique usage characteristics (e.g., system device usage) of an individual information handling system, and to determine a unique system pre-boot interface (PBI) configuration for the individual information handling system based on these monitored unique usage characteristics. The provided systems and methods may also be implemented to automatically update pre-boot interface security configuration for system devices based on the monitored usage characteristics of the individual information handling system.

  • Security risk indicator and method therefor
    Patent number: 11416607
    Abstract: A method may include determining a configuration of one or more basic input/output system (BIOS) settings identified as influencing security at an information handling system. The method may further include determining a security risk score based on the configuration, and generating a security gauge image that provides a visual indication of the security risk score. The security gauge image may be displayed during BIOS initialization at the information handling system.

  • Systems and methods for executing and verifying system firmware update before committing firmware update to motherboard
    Patent number: 11221842
    Abstract: A method may include, during a boot of an information handling system: determining, based on settings stored in non-volatile memory of the information handling system, whether to perform pre-commit execution of a firmware update image prior to committing the firmware update image to a motherboard of the information handling system, and responsive to determining to perform pre-commit execution, load the firmware update image from a basic input/output system partition of a storage resource of the information handling system and execute the firmware update image in lieu of a firmware image stored on the motherboard.
