Abstract: An information handling system housing is secured against unauthorized access with a security device integrated in the housing that selectively enables and disables screw movement relative to threads disposed in the housing. For instance, a freewheeling nut in the housing interfaces with an actuator that selectively releases or holds the freewheeling nut relative to the housing. When released, a screw coupled to the freewheeling nut cannot rotate relative to the threads of the freewheeling nut so that the screw maintains the housing secured until the freewheeling nut is held in position to allow removal of the screw.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide multilevel authorization of workspaces using certificates, where all of the authorization levels may be authorized separately or may instead be authorized at once. A measurement of an IHS (Information Handling System) is calculated based on the identity of the IHS and based on firmware of the IHS. A measurement of the configuration of the IHS is calculated based on information for configuring the IHS for supporting workspaces and also based on the IHS measurement. A measurement of a workspace session is calculated based on properties of a session used to remotely support operation of the workspace by the IHS and also based on the configuration measurement. Workspace session data may by authorized at all three levels by evaluating the session measurement against a reference session measurement.

Abstract: Systems and methods that may be implemented to use encryption to isolate SMI functions, libraries and data from each other, such as during operation of systems management mode (SMM). Isolation of SMI function, library and data (and limitation of SMI function/library privileges) may be achieved in SMI at runtime by decrypting only that code and data needed for performing the required action/s in response to a SMI received from a calling process by a host processor (e.g., CPU).

Abstract: Systems and methods adjust workspaces based on available hardware resource of an IHS (Information Handling System) by which a user operates a workspace supported by a remote orchestration service. A security context and a productivity context of the IHS are determined based on reported context information. A workspace definition for providing access to a managed resource is selected based on the security context and the productivity context. A notification specifies a hardware resource of the IHS that is not used by the workspace definition, such as a microphone or camera that has not been enabled for use by workspaces. A productivity improvement that results from the updated productivity context that includes use of the first hardware resource is determined. Based on the productivity improvement, an updated workspace definition is selected that includes use of the first hardware resource in providing access to the managed resource via the IHS.

Abstract: An information handling system (IHS) unambiguously addresses networked devices connected by a local area network (LAN) based network interface controller (NIC) by detecting a device descriptor of LAN-based NIC, determining that the device descriptor indicates a capability for assigning a reserve media access control (MAC) address to the networked device, writing the reserve MAC address in the LAN-based NIC of the networked device, and associating the reserve MAC address with the networked device in an inventory data structure for the IHS.

Abstract: Systems and methods for hardware-based protection of Application Programming Interface (API) keys are described. In some embodiments, an endpoint Information Handling System (IHS) may include a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the processor, cause the IHS to: send an encrypted API key to a trusted controller; and receive a decrypted API key from the trusted controller.

Abstract: Systems and methods support updates peripheral devices that may be coupled to an Information Handling System (IHS), such as provided at shared-use workstations. The IHS reports, to a remote orchestrator, an inventory of peripheral devices that are coupled to the IHS. In response, the remote orchestrator provides the IHS with files for updates to some or all of the coupled peripheral devices. As part of the updates, the remote orchestrator also designates a specific peripheral device as a proxy for making updates to other peripherals of the shared-use workstation. The IHS transmits the files to the proxy peripheral device, where the files are stored in a memory of the proxy peripheral device. The proxy peripheral device uses the files to update the other peripherals of the shared-use workstation, such as when the peripherals are not in use by the IHS, or after the IHS has been disconnected.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing fleet remediation of compromised workspaces are described. In some embodiments, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution, cause the IHS to: receive, from a first local management agent configured to provide a first workspace in a fleet of workspaces, an indication that the first workspace has suffered a security compromise, where the first workspace is instantiated based upon a first workspace definition; and in response to the indication, transmit a second workspace definition to a second local management agent configured to provide a second workspace in the fleet of workspaces, where the second workspace is instantiated based upon the first workspace definition, and where the second local management agent is configured to instantiate a third workspace based upon the second workspace definition.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for managing capabilities of workspaces operating on an Information Handling System (IHS). A request is received from a user of the IHS for access to a protected resource. A security context and a productivity context are determined for operation of a primary workspace on the IHS. Two or more applications are identified for operation within the primary workspace, where the applications provide access to the protected resource, and where the applications include overlapping capabilities. Based on the security context and the productivity context for the primary workspace deployment, two or more of the applications with overlapping capabilities are selected for operation within the primary workspace.

Abstract: Systems and methods support operation of primary on an Information Handling System (IHS) and the operation of subordinate workspaces on peripheral devices coupled to the IHS. The IHS receives a primary workspace definition from a remote orchestrator and instantiates a primary workspace based upon the primary workspace definition, where the instantiated primary workspace operates using core resources of the IHS and provides access to a protected resource. The IHS reports, to the remote orchestrator, an inventory of peripheral devices that are detected as coupled to the IHS. In response, one or more subordinate workspace definitions are received from the remote orchestrator, where each of the subordinate workspace definitions are for operation of a subordinate workspace by one of the peripheral devices coupled to the IHS. Based on the received subordinate workspace definitions, operation of subordinate workspaces is initiated on peripheral devices coupled to the IHS.
