Abstract
Methods and system are provided for validating the secure assembly and delivery of an IHS (Information Handling System). During factory provisioning of the IHS, an inventory certificate is uploaded to the IHS. The certificate includes: an inventory of hardware components installed during factory assembly of the IHS, validation schemas the provide instructions for identifying the hardware components, and digital signatures used to confirm the integrity of the validation schemas. Upon delivery of the IHS, a validation process retrieves the inventory certificate and confirms the integrity of the validation schemas. Based on validation schema instructions, the validation process collects an inventory of the detected IHS hardware. The validation schema instructions are further used to compare the collected inventory against the inventory from the inventory certificate in order to validate the detected hardware components of the IHS as the same hardware components installed during factory assembly of the IHS.
