Introduction to deguard
03-20, 19:00–19:10 (UTC), Dasharo Developers vPub

This talk will introduce the deguard utility, allowing to bypass Intel BootGuard and enabling coreboot development on previously locked down platforms.


Intel Boot Guard has long been a major roadblock for Coreboot development, effectively locking down newer platforms—except for vendors purchasing in bulk with Boot Guard disabled. This talk will explore how that landscape has shifted with Deguard, a tool leveraging a disclosed vulnerability ( CVE-2017-5705).
