Configuration data deletion based on tamper status

An example storage medium includes instructions that, when executed, cause a processor of a computing device to read, during start-up of the computing device, first configuration data from a first storage device of the computing device; read second configuration data from a second storage device of...

Zusammenfassung:An example storage medium includes instructions that, when executed, cause a processor of a computing device to read, during start-up of the computing device, first configuration data from a first storage device of the computing device; read second configuration data from a second storage device of the computing device; determine that there is an inconsistency between the first configuration data and the second configuration data; check a tamper status of the computing device; based on the tamper status and the determination that there is an inconsistency between the first configuration data and the second configuration data: (i) clear a secure storage location of the computing device, the secure storage location storing data to access protected data; or (ii) replace the first configuration data on the first storage device of the computing device based on second data and continue the start-up of the computing device.
