Setup Utilities and Diagnostics Features

Security

(continued)

Embedded

Security (This menu

only appears after

the Embedded

Security Device is

made available

under Device

Security)

Allows you to:

• Enable/disable the Embedded Security device.
• Reset the device to Factory Settings.
• Enable/disable power-on authentication support (some

models).

• Reset authentication credentials (some models).

This feature is supported on some models only.

Device Security

Enables/disables serial ports, parallel port, all USB ports, front USB

ports, system audio, network controllers (some models), and

embedded security device (some models).

Network Service

Boot

Enables/disables the computer’s ability to boot from an operating

system installed on a network server. (Feature available on NIC

models only; the network controller must reside on the PCI bus or be

embedded on the system board.)

System IDs

Allows you to set:

• Asset tag (18-byte identifier) and ownership Tag (80-byte

identifier displayed during POST).

• Ownership Tag. This tag is a string that is displayed under the

POST splash screen that can be used to identify the owner of

the computer.

• Chassis serial number or Universal Unique Identifier (UUID)

number. The UUID can only be updated if the current chassis

serial number is invalid. (These ID numbers are normally set in

the factory and are used to uniquely identify the system.)

• Keyboard locale setting (for example, English or German) for

System ID entry.

DriveLock Security

Allows you to assign or modify a master or user password for hard

drives. When this feature is enabled, the user is prompted to

provide one of the DriveLock passwords during POST. If neither is

successfully entered, the hard drive will remain inaccessible until

one of the passwords is successfully provided during a subsequent

cold-boot sequence.

This selection will only appear when at least one drive that

supports the DriveLock feature is attached to the system.

OS Security (some

models)

This selection is in effect only if the processor and operating

system being used comprehend and utilize this feature.

• Data Execution Prevention (some models) (enable/disable).

Helps prevent OS security breaches.

• Intel Virtualization Technology (some models) (enable/disable).

Changing this setting requires turning the computer off and then

back on.
