Abstract:
In one or more embodiments, one or more systems, methods, and/or processes may determine multiple digital signatures of respective multiple portions of information handling system firmware that is stored in a non-volatile memory medium of an information handling system; may determine that the multiple digital signatures match respective multiple stored digital signatures; may receive contents of a complex logic device of the information handling system; may determine a digital signature of the contents of the complex logic device; may determine that the digital signature of the contents of the complex logic device does not match a stored digital signature associated with the complex logic device; and, in response to determining that the digital signature of the contents of the complex logic device does not match the stored digital signature associated with the complex logic device, may program the complex logic device with a complex logic device firmware image.
