发明名称 Secure CMOS
摘要 For changing configuration data (CFD) stored in a non-volatile memory (NVM) device of an information handling system (IHS), a determination is made whether the IHS is operating in a startup mode or in a run-time mode. In the startup mode, a basic input output system (BIOS) program stored in the NVM is executed to change the CFD. In the run-time mode, an application program (AP) is executed to interface with the BIOS for changing the CD. The AP provides an authentication request to enable the AP to change the CFD and the BIOS provides a security access key to the AP in response to authenticating the request. The CFD is received and changed by the AP to generate a revised CFD. The revised CFD and the security access key are provided to the BIOS to save the change in the NVM.
