Ready BIOS for Device
Guard Use
Action
Ready BIOS for Device Guard Use includes a drop-down box
that automatically configures the BIOS settings that Windows
requires to enable Device Guar, or to change the
configuration back to the configuration before Device Guard
was enabled. Device Guard is a Windows feature that enables
higher security around drivers and BIOS behavior.
The following settings are possible:
• Configure on Next Boot
• Clear Configuration on Next Boot
When set to Configure on Next Boot, the BIOS changes the
following settings to the states required by Device Guard
after saving changes and exit.
• Virtualization features are enabled.
• Removable and network boot devices are disabled
(for example, USB boot, CD-ROM boot, Thunderbolt
boot, etc.).
• MS UEFI CA Key is disabled.
When set to Clear Configuration on Next Boot, the BIOS sets
the listed features to their Custom Default state if custom
defaults have been saved. If custom defaults have not been
saved, the BIOS restores the listed features to their factory
default states.
