Methods, systems, and computer programs for sending a sensor enable signal to a sensor of an information handling system via a light source, the light source electrically coupling the host controller to the sensor; receiving a feedback signal from the sensor, the feedback signal indicating whether the sensor is in an on state or in an off state; determining, based on the feedback signal, whether the sensor is in the on state or in the off state; determining whether the light source is in an illuminated state or in an unilluminated state; and in response to determining that the sensor is in the on state and that the light source is in the unilluminated state: causing a first notification to be displayed to a user of the information handling system, the first notification indicating to the user that the sensor is in a compromised state.
