1.2 Security Recommendation

Overview

To avoid unauthorized access and potential harmful operations to the server with consequences to the rest of your network, it is recommended to:

  1. Install the server in an area with restricted/controlled access
  2. Disable USB boot in the BIOS and protect the BIOS with a password to avoid installation of malicious software.

    The BIOS can be accessed by pressing the <F2> key during startup of the device.

Note: Make sure the BIOS password can be provided to the Barco Service personnel to facilitate the repair process. If the password is lost, the system will need to be wiped completely upon service intervention.
