Microsoft now offers new security enhancements at the BIOS and Hypervisor levels.
The Secured-core Server application works with HPE’s silicon-root-of-trust to provide protection against threats and attacks that occur during a server restart via firmware.
VBS technology protects the Hypervisor by isolating individual processes from the operating system. This prevents attacks spreading across the system and avoids the entire server becoming compromised.
