    摘要: A system for use with a computer is provided, the computer including a self-encrypting drive (SED), the SED including a nominal space and a pre-boot region, wherein the nominal space can be locked to prevent access to the nominal space. The system includes SED management software configured to be loaded in the pre-boot region of the SED. The SED management software includes a pre-boot operating system (OS) and an unlocking program. The unlocking program is configured (a) to execute within the pre-boot OS, and (b) upon successful authentication of a user, to unlock the nominal space of the SED. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and apparatuses for a self-encrypting drive (SED) management system configured to be loaded in a pre-boot region of an SED-based computer, the SED of the SED-based computer having a nominal space, which may be encrypted when the SED-based computer is shut down, and the pre-boot region. The SED management system comprises a pre-boot operating system (OS); at least one pre-boot library configured to support the pre-boot OS; and an unlocking software program configured to work with the pre-boot OS to transfer control directly to an operating system of the nominal space upon a successful authentication. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
