Take complete control of endpoint security before the operating system even loads! Hexnode UEM now supports remote hardware-level password management for Windows endpoints, available right under the Security section of Remote Actions. 

Newly Added Remote Actions 

  • Set BIOS password: Set up a password to restrict access to BIOS settings. Supported on ASUS, HP, Dell, and Lenovo devices. 

  • Change BIOS password: Update the existing password used to access BIOS settings. Supported on ASUS, HP, Dell, and Lenovo devices. 

  • Clear BIOS password: Remove the BIOS password from the device. Supported on ASUS, HP, Dell, and Lenovo devices. 

  • Set System Password: Set up a password to lock the device at the hardware level, restricting unauthorized access before the OS loads. Supported on Dell devices. 

  • Change System Password: Update the existing system password to manage pre-boot access. Supported on Dell and Lenovo devices. 

  • Clear System Password: Remove the pre-boot system password from the device. Supported on Dell and Lenovo devices. 

 What Makes It Special 

  • Masked Credential View: Securely check active passwords under Device Status Info using an eye-icon toggle. 

  • Fail-Safe Execution: Changing or clearing credentials strictly requires entering the active password first to prevent lockouts. 

  • Smart Space Trimming: Automatically removes extra spaces accidentally copied or typed at the start or end of a password, ensuring hidden formatting errors don’t cause failed logins. 

Protect your devices against physical tampering without ever leaving your seat. Take control of your hardware security straight from the Hexnode console today!
