Abstract
Systems and methods provide Information Handling Systems (IHSs) that are restricted to communications with a plurality of allowed network resources. An IHS detects a request for access to a network resource. Upon detecting the request, the IHS identifies a factory-provisioned network address that is stored by the IHS and that specifies a location of an adaptive allow list that specifies a listing of the allowed network resources to which the IHS is restricted. The adaptive allow list is loaded from the factory-provisioned network address and used to reject the request for access to the network resource when the network resource is not in the listing of allowed network resources from the adaptive allow list. Through modifications to the adaptive allow lists, administrators can modify the network resource that may be accessed by the IHS.
