To be useful to you, usually yes. To be a convenient security hole, AFAIK no. Any quotes on ME being safe on non-vPro?

- lima 7y agoIt's still a security risk – code is running in the ME that can be exploited locally. Without vPro or with remote management and the network stack turned off there's a much smaller (probably close to zero) remote attack surface. With a vPro-capable chipset that has remote management enabled, the ME has its own IP address, plenty of potentially unsafe services, an insecure-by-default provisioning mechanism and much more.
