System Defense 2.
In addition to the in-bound and out-bound packet filtering of
the previous generation, System Defense 2 is an Intel AMT feature that uses
advanced heuristics to help protect against the propagation of worms through the
use of preset packet filters.
The number of new connections made to a specific
port or IP address are counted over a specific time window.
If a preset threshold is
exceeded, it will alert the Management Console and suspend the client’s network
activity until the system can be remediated.
•
Remote Configuration minimizes the cost to deploy Intel AMT by eliminating the
need for IT personnel to touch each client system prior to configuration.
Remote
Configuration consists of a single OEM BIOS/Firmware image that provides the
Intel AMT client with information to authenticate connections and allows it to
remotely perform a secure setup procedure.
IT departments must acquire an
appropriate Intel AMT-trusted certificate as well as use a remote management
application that supports Remote Configuration.
Remote Configuration also
requires the use of automatic IP addressing (DHCP).

Intel AMT Software and Drivers
Intel AMT software and drivers are available from Intel’s World Wide Web site.
The
package usually consists of two separate drivers: one for the Intel
®
Management
Engine Interface (Intel
®
MEI) and one for the Local Manageability Service (LMS) plus
Serial over LAN (SoL).
