Examples associated with network compliance detection are described. One example includes storing a set of security rules for a device. The device monitors the device for compliance with the security rules. Upon detecting noncompliance with an identified security rule, the device may disable network access for the device, and establish a trigger. The trigger may disable network access for the device when network access for the device is restored prior to returning the device to compliance with the identified security rule.

Network device compliance

An example computing device includes a communication device, an input device, a storage device, firmware stored in the storage device, and a processor. The processor is to: in response to receiving a set of credentials, transmit a request to a server via the communication device, where the request includes the set of credentials and identification information of the computing device; receive a temporary password and expiration information of the temporary password from the server via the communication device; replace a password of the firmware with the temporary password; in response to receiving the temporary password via the input device, determine if the temporary password is valid based on the expiration information; and in response to a determination that the temporary password is valid, provide access to the firmware.

Firmware access based on temporary passwords

An example non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions that when executed cause a processor of a computing device to: in response to receiving a chunk size request from a recovery agent executable at an operating system of the computing device, determine a chunk size via firmware instructions of the computing device; transmit the chunk size from the firmware instructions to the recovery agent; receive data chunks of a recovery image from the recovery agent in sequence; store the data chunks in a storage device of the computing device; and construct the recovery image using the data chunks.
