Firmware as a Service: Enhancing BIOS Security and Flexibility - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

Firmware as a Service (FaaS) represents an industry-wide philosophy that directs BIOS designers to consider offering customer firmware-level functionalities from a service standpoint. In the actual design process of BIOS, the FaaS service should exhibit sufficient flexibility and be pluggable, meaning it can be customized and integrated into the user's motherboard when required, and can be conveniently updated. The FaaS design empowers users with greater initiative, enabling them to effortlessly acquire and upgrade the firmware features they genuinely require. Moreover, it enhances the security and flexibility in the design of the system BIOS. In this webinar, the audience will learn about the FaaS concept that encourages BIOS designers to offer firmware-level functionalities as a service. They will also learn about the requirements and the technical solution for FaaS in the actual BIOS design, specifically its flexibility and pluggability. Attendees will also learn about FaaS features designed using UEFI EDK libraries, including features such as https boot, capsule update, and more. This session will also include a live demonstration of industry common use cases.
