What Would it Take to Enable Global Firmware Vulnerability Checking & Integrity Checking?

Abstract

A Microsoft-targeted discussion of what they could do to improve the state of firmware security, e.g. by performing vulnerability and integrity checking within their customer base. Unfortunately neither Microsoft nor MITRE ever published this presentation. (And of course Microsoft never implemented the idea.)
