Precision 7875 Tower

Hello all,

 

Recently my company purchased a Precision 7875 Tower and I have some questions about security,

 

I have take all the possible measures I could possible think of , 

 

Chassis Intrusion - Enabled,

 

TPM 2.0 - Enabled,

 

BitLocker - Enabled,

 

Case locked with external lock,

 

Admin password for bios,

 

Policy regarding the specific machine,

 

My question to you all because I couldn't find anything relevant,

 

If someone bypasses the physical lock of the machine and removes the battery for the BIOS while the BIOS reset? And access to certain security features enabled within the BIOS?

 

Thank you all in advance.

    Unfortunately yes, if someone has access to your workstation, they will not sit around to reset BIOS.  They will take the whole system, the hardware is gone and under their control. 

     

    The good news is your encrypted data not accessible without your log in credential.
