Abstract
Disclosed are various examples for enforcing firmware profiles. First, it is determined that a device record associated with a client device fails to specify a firmware profile. A firmware profile is then generated for the client device. Subsequently, a command is generated that causes a firmware of the client device to be configured based at least in part on the firmware profile. The firmware profile is then stored in the device record.
