The US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has released a report offering advice to PC manufacturers on how they can assist the public good by protecting the BIOS used on servers. The report is a draft, and comments can be left with the agency until September 14, 2012. The report follows a similar report urging improvements in laptop and desktop workstations from 2011, in the wake of the Mebromi BIOS-altering malware.
