Default Boffins pull apart Intel’s secret code

Closed-source variation of the open-source MINIX 3

Security experts have been looking at some code on Intel chips which can change your computers fundamental settings.

We have known about Intel’s Management Engine [ME], a small microprocessor that runs independently of the main CPU and operating system since Matthew Garrett, the well-known Linux and security developer who works for Google blew the whistle on the tech.

Various pieces of software run on the ME, ranging from code to handle media DRM to an implementation of a TPM. AMT [Active Management Technology] is another piece of software running on the ME."
