Abstract
An information handling system may include a processor and a basic input/output system communicatively coupled to the processor and embodied by executable instructions embodied in non-transitory computer readable media, the instructions configured to, when executed by the processor: extract from a boot manifest a list of files associated with operating system applications of the information handling system and respective signatures for each of the files; locate the files listed in the boot manifest on a partition of a storage resource accessible to the processor; attempt to verify signatures for each of the files as stored on the storage resource against their respective signatures set forth in the boot manifest; enable execution of a boot loader for the operating system and the operating system applications in response to successful verification of the signatures; and abort a boot process of the information handling system in response to unsuccessful verification of the signatures.
