Physically securing the platform hardware The BIOS provides control with two types of physical security: hood latch and hood sensor. The hood latch is an electronically controlled mechanism that locks the chassis hood. The hood sensor is a device that detects if the chassis hood has been opened or removed. The administrator has the choice of which security policy to enable if a hood sensor event should happen: • Notify the user on the next startup that the chassis hood has been removed • Require administrator authorization to continue the startup process • Ignore any chassis hood removal Overall BIOS security picture The following diagram represents the various security levels and interactions enabled by the HP BIOS. 12

of which security policy to enable if a hood sensor event should happen:
•
Notify the user on the next startup that the chassis hood has been removed
•
