Abstract
An information handling system includes a basic input/output system having a virtual advanced configuration and power interface device. A processor may download a device driver for a particular virtual advanced configuration and power interface device, wherein the device driver includes a code for a security feature and a signed file that includes a list of identifiers of compromised information handling systems. The processor may determine whether the information handling system is compromised based on the list of identifiers of compromised information handling systems in the signed file, and execute the code for the security feature.
