Background for this topic.
Dell produces a wide range of computing hardware, including laptops, desktops, servers, and storage devices, many of which incorporate embedded security features such as hardware-based encryption, secure boot, and trusted platform modules (TPMs). These built-in protections help safeguard data at rest and ensure device integrity, which is critical for preventing unauthorized access and tampering at the firmware or hardware level.
