Abstract:
Embodiments of systems and methods for indicating a type of secure boot to endpoint devices by a security processor are described. In some embodiments, a security processor may include: a core and a memory coupled to the core, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the core, cause the security processor to: identify a type of secure boot last performed to bootstrap an Information Handling System (IHS); and make an indication of the type of secure boot available to a host processor or Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) of the IHS.
