Several corporations use it for Lights-Out management or on laptops to ensure data security compliance.
The things for which you actually want a backdoor in your server to control it from. Maybe even in the face of an attacker who has gained full control of both software and hardware.
- freedomben 9y agoI would love a potential employer/recruiter to woo me with, "Your choice of non-backdoor-ed laptop that respects your privacy." I would at least give them a phone call for that line.
- mattnewton 9y agoWhat is private about a company laptop? Your own laptop shouldn’t be backdoored, but I think it’s irrational to expect the a laptop owned by the company won’t be managed by that company.
- freedomben 9y agoI don't expect it. That's why if a company offered it to me I would be impressed. It would speak volumes that they: A) Trust their employees B) Respect my privacy C) Aren't paternalistic
