The processor is to: in response to receiving a set of credentials, transmit a request to a server via the communication device, where the request includes the set of credentials and identification information of the computing device; receive a temporary password and expiration information of the temporary password from the server via the communication device; replace a password of the firmware with the temporary password; in response to receiving the temporary password via the input device, determine if the temporary password is valid based on the expiration information; and in response to a determination that the temporary password is valid, provide access to the firmware. firmware
