Common BIOS Setup Utility Tasks
UEFI Secure Boot
Oracle Exadata Storage Server X7-2 UEFI BIOS supports UEFI Secure Boot. UEFI Secure
Boot defines how platform firmware can authenticate a digitally signed UEFI image, such as an
operating system loader or a UEFI driver.
When enabled, UEFI Secure Boot provides a policy-based invocation of various UEFI
executable images, using cryptographic signatures to identify the software publishers. UEFI
Secure Boot also requires all third-party UEFI drivers and operating system boot loaders to be
signed by Microsoft or with Key Exchange Key (KEK) by using BIOS setup.
UEFI Secure Boot is disabled by default. For configuration information, see
.
Trusted Execution Technology
Oracle Exadata Storage Server X7-2 uses Trusted Execution Technology (TXT), which
provides authenticity of a platform and its operating system.
When enabled, TXT ensures that the operating system (OS) starts in a trusted environment, and
provides the OS with additional security capabilities not available to an untrusted OS. Using
cryptographic techniques, TXT provides measurements of software and platform components
so that system software as well as local and remote management applications may use those
measurements to make trust decisions. Trusted Execution Technology defends against software-
based attacks aimed at stealing sensitive information by corrupting system or BIOS code, or
modifying a platform's configuration.
Trusted Execution Technology is disabled by default. For configuration information, see
“Configure Trusted Execution Technology” on page 227
