Examples of electronic devices are described herein. In some examples, an electronic device includes a memory and a controller. In some examples, the controller is to enable a basic input/output system (BIOS) safe mode in response to an authentication procedure. In some examples, the controller is to provide access to back-up variable service region in the memory storing default BIOS data. In some examples, the controller is to start a modified BIOS based on the default BIOS data in response to enablement of the BIOS safe mode.

Bios safe mode update with secure authentication when implementing modified bios or original bios

An example computing device includes a non-volatile memory to store Basic Input/Output Systems (BIOS) data of the computing device, an audio codec, and a controller. The controller is to: receive a command from a provisioning device at the audio codec; and transfer a copy of the BIOS data between the controller and the memory based on the command.
