DTD App: Dell PC Telemetry Secures BIOS Integrity Monitoring

Discover how Dell’s DTD App uses advanced telemetry and tamper detection to safeguard BIOS against threats.

Never before has enterprise security been more crucial. IT decision-makers are under tremendous pressure to protect their PC fleets while maintaining operational efficiency due to the exponential development of cyber threats. Endpoint security goes much beyond conventional software safeguards, as evidenced by research showing that 69% of firms had a BIOS- or device-level attack. This is where device security and management are redefined by Dell business AI PCs.

Dell endpoint security portfolio, Dell Trusted Workspace, offers a smooth integrated solution that empowers IT managers to predict, identify, and respond to possible threats at the fundamental levels of each device with BIOS-level intelligence and innovative telemetry. By implementing Dell’s solutions, you may improve the security posture of your fleet while also saving time and effort through automated operations. Let’s examine why Dell continues to top the market for the safest commercial AI PCs.

The Complexity of the Enterprise Security Landscape

The world that IT administrators must navigate is getting more and more complicated. Additionally, IT and security teams may encounter fragmented solutions that lack interoperability, hinder prompt coordinated action, and even necessitate manual coordination in order to collaborate, given the abundance of security and device management tools. As a result, their IT environments may become more vulnerable, putting their businesses at risk of security breaches. Furthermore, the ever-present risks have only gotten worse since attackers are now focusing on areas underneath the operating system (OS) layer, where endpoint detection systems frequently fall short in providing visibility into BIOS and firmware-level activity.

This is where the Dell-specific PC telemetry and Dell Trusted Device (DTD) software are useful. These technologies might help organizations close the gap in IT security.

How Dell PC Telemetry Works?

The foundation of Dell’s below-the-OS security is telemetry. By connecting BIOS capabilities to a safe, centralized monitoring ecosystem, it improves security and manageability. Crucially, Dell PC telemetry and the DTD app use a range of tamper detections to compare BIOS and firmware to the known good in order to confirm the integrity of these systems:

  • Real-time tamper detection: Use Indicators of Attack (IoA), a tool that enables managers to examine events that can point to malicious actors attacking the BIOS on enterprise endpoints, to identify BIOS changes and unusual activity early.
  • React precisely: Get useful information to patch vulnerabilities and recover from assaults with ease by using CVE Detection, CVE Remediation, and off-host BIOS Verification.
  • Avoidance: SOCs can better comprehend an assault and pinpoint weaknesses to fortify defenses against future attacks with the help of insights obtained from the Image Capture capability.
  • Connect to the current tools: For unified device and fleet-wide insight, feed Dell’s embedded telemetry into programs like Splunk, Microsoft Intune, CrowdStrike, and Absolute.

Your fleet operates more intelligently, quickly, and efficiently with the cooperative synergy between hardware and software.

Enrich your workflows with below-the-OS telemetry today

Keeping track of a fleet of gadgets shouldn’t be difficult. Its on a quest to alleviate the IT and security pain points that Dell’s customers face! Today, fulfilling that commitment in the following new ways:

  • Commercial systems with AMD and Intel processors can now use Dell’s improved security and telemetry features. More visibility into your varied fleet and increased assurance that you’re dealing with the safest commercial AI PCs will result from this additional support.
  • Dell Client Device Manager (DCDM)-based integrated monitoring for managed environments: The streamlined PC security features formerly offered by the DTD app will be advantageous to managed environments. To Dell recent launch of DCDM. All of DTD’s advantages, along with the newest capabilities listed below, are available to ITDMs if they just choose the DCDM Security Module. Using the latest Dell telemetry capabilities, administrators in the Microsoft Intune environment can now establish and implement fleet-wide security policies for seamless, end-to-end coverage without ever leaving Intune.
  • Automated CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) remediation for firmware-level and BIOS defects has been added to DCDM’s Security Module, enabling quick and effective updates. The DCDM Security module is the only one with this brand-new, industry-leading functionality. When Dell Command | Update is installed, all of the current functionalities, including CVE D CVE Detection for Firmware, are accessible for unmanaged environments that are still utilizing the DTD app.)
The Dell Client Device Manager lets IT admins choose the appropriate modules to keep users secure, productive, and compliant.
