Secured Component Verification

Secured Component Verification (SCV) is a supply chain assurance offering that enables you to verify that the PowerEdge server you have received matches what was manufactured in the factory. In order to validate components, a certificate containing the unique system component IDs is generated during the factory assembly process. This certificate is signed in the Dell factory and is stored in the system, later used by the SCV application. The SCV application validates the system inventory against the SCV certificate.
