Abstract

According to embodiments of the present disclosure, systems and methods to provide pre-deployment assessment for device integrity are disclosed. The pre-deployment assessment systems and methods include computer-executable instructions to identify a Security Protocol and Data Model (SPDM)-enabled device conforming to a SPDM specification, obtain one or more identifying parameters and one or more critical parameters from the SPDM-enabled device, and communicate with a server to obtain information about the SPDM-enabled device without sending any critical information to the server. The instructions then determine whether the SPDM-enabled device is authorized for use in the IHS by comparing the identifying parameters with the information obtained from the server, and when the SPDM-enabled device is authorized for use with the IHS, send the critical parameters to the server. However, when the SPDM-enabled device is not authorized for use with the IHS, the instructions inhibit sending of the critical parameters to the server.
