Abstract
A BIOS setup environment configuration modification audit system includes a BIOS device that is included in a computing device and that is coupled to a component device in the computing device. The BIOS device enters a BIOS setup environment for the computing device and, while in the BIOS setup environment, detects component device configuration modification(s) to a configuration of the component device. The BIOS device then generates component device configuration modification information for the component device configuration modification(s) to the configuration of the component device, and provides the component device configuration modification information for storage in a non-volatile storage device that may be included in the BIOS device, a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) device coupled to the BIOS device, or a network-connected device coupled to the BIOS device, any of which may provide access to that component device configuration modification information in response to a component device configuration audit request.
