Abstract

In some examples, a computing device includes a data port, device memory to store firmware for the computing device, and verification circuitry. The verification circuitry may override operation of the data port responsive to a determination that firmware verification mode criteria are satisfied. The verification circuitry may also extract firmware data from the device memory for verification of the firmware and provide the firmware data to an external device connected to the computing device through the data port.
