The Latest From FirmGuard
FirmGuard is uniquely positioned in the marketplace to help IT administrators monitor their endpoints for firmware vulnerabilities and thus keep up with the NIST CSF Detect function (DE.CM): Assets are monitored to find anomalies, indicators of compromise, and other potentially adverse events.
Healthy Technology Solutions (HTS) had been using FirmGuard successfully for many months to measure and monitor the status of their client endpoints, including UEFI BIOS firmware security. Within the span of less than a month, however, they suddenly had two high priority use cases for SecureConfig—which they had only recently begun to use. The specifics of the two use cases are highlighted below.
Organizations that ignore UEFI BIOS firmware vulnerability do so at their own peril and are setting themselves up for a potentially devasting attack. But what is UEFI? How do we protect endpoints from UEFI BIOS vulnerabilities? And what types of vulnerabilities are there?
SecureWipe is a FirmGuard feature that securely erases endpoint HDD, SSD, and other mass storage devices. It is triggered remotely from the FirmGuard Portal and forensically erases all data and partitions independent of the operating system (OS).
