Bios Setup Security Functions; Access Authorisation Via Smartcard (Optional); Access Protection With Systemlock (Optional) - Fujitsu CELSIUS M4 Series Operating Manual

BIOS setup security functions

The Security menu in BIOS Setup offers you various options for protecting your personal data against
unauthorised access, e.g.:
● Preventing unauthorised access to the BIOS Setup.
● Preventing unauthorised system access
● Virus warnings, activating
● BIOS: Protecting BIOS from overwriting
● Protecting the device from being switched on by an external device
You can also combine these functions.
You will find a detailed description of the Security menus and how to assign passwords in the manual
for the mainboard or in the "BIOS Setup" manual.

Access authorisation via SmartCard (optional)

In systems equipped with a SmartCard reader, access can be restricted to those users who have a
corresponding SmartCard.

Access protection with SystemLock (optional)

With SystemLock you can protect your system from unauthorised booting. Then a system can only be
booted when the user inserts a valid SmartCard in the SmartCard reader and enters his/her personal
code number (PIN). To use SystemLock you require the following components:
● External or internal SmartCard reader
● SystemLock installed (see "BIOS Setup" manual)
● SmartCard
SystemLock controls access to your device. When a SmartCard is initialised, permissions are
assigned for system access (system, setup, system+setup, admin). You can configure several
SmartCards for one system and initialise them with different permissions. In addition you can protect
access to your hard disk.
In this way users can be divided into user groups. Users of a user group use SmartCards with the
same permissions.
