Introduction
The Dell Trusted Device agent is part of the Dell SafeBIOS product portfolio. The Trusted Device agent includes BIOS
Verification, Image Capture, BIOS Events & Indicators of Attack, and Security Risk Protection Score.
BIOS Verification provides customers with affirmation that devices are secured below the operating system, a place where IT
administrator visibility is lacking. It enables customers to verify BIOS integrity using an off-host process without interrupting
the boot process. After the Trusted Device agent runs on the endpoint, a pass or fail result (0 or 1) displays in some of these
locations:
● Web browser
● Command line
● Registry entry
● Event Viewer
● Logs
BIOS Events & Indicators of Attack enables administrators to analyze events in the Windows Event Viewer that may indicate
bad actors targeting BIOS on enterprise endpoints. Bad actors change BIOS attributes to gain access to enterprise computers
locally or remotely. These attack vectors can be monitored then mitigated through the BIOS Events & Indicators of Attack
features' ability to monitor BIOS attributes.
Security Risk Protection Score enables administrators to determine the security risk level of computers in their enterprise.
Trusted Device scans for security solutions and assigns a score per overall risk assessment.
