BIOS Intelligence API

BIOS intelligence for
mixed vendor fleets.

One API for Dell, HP, and Lenovo BIOS posture. CVE enrichment, CISA KEV, release notes, historical snapshots, and fleet benchmarking in minutes.

The problem

BIOS intelligence is fragmented

Every fleet assessment means wrestling with three vendors, three formats, and zero cross-vendor visibility.

Three vendors, three formats, three websites

Every vendor publishes BIOS updates differently. Every assessment means navigating three separate portals, three different formats, and correlating everything manually.

CVE assessment takes days

BlackLotus drops. "Are we exposed?" Your team spends days checking three vendor sites, reading release notes, cross-referencing CVEs manually. Every time a new firmware CVE appears.

Auto-patching is a black box

Intune deploys BIOS updates automatically. But what CVEs were fixed? Which machines were skipped? What's your actual firmware posture? You can't tell.

Built for your role

One API, different value

Whether you run the fleet, manage the team, or own the risk — biosapi answers your specific question.

“

I spent weeks building tools for a BlackLotus assessment. Three vendor sites, three catalog formats, manual CVE cross-referencing. And that was with scripting skills — most teams don’t even attempt it.

— Endpoint Engineer, 800-device mixed fleet

Stop parsing three vendor catalogs. We already did.

  • Query by model or CVE — get normalized results across Dell, HP, and Lenovo
  • Compare against your fleet — use our scripts or build your own
  • One API you can script into your existing workflows
  • Release notes and CVE enrichment in one place — no manual hunting
“

I can’t answer ‘what’s our firmware posture?’ without asking my team to spend a week on it. And when a BIOS CVE drops, I need a status I don’t have ready.

— IT Director, 2,000-device enterprise

Know your fleet’s BIOS posture. Give your team hours back.

  • Cross-vendor fleet visibility — how many machines current vs behind
  • 10–20 hours of manual work per assessment → minutes
  • When a firmware CVE drops, the answer is ready — no scrambling
  • Priced so you can say yes without a procurement committee
“

Firmware is a blind spot. Our vulnerability program covers OS and apps but we have zero visibility into BIOS-level CVE exposure across the fleet. I can’t defend that gap.

— CISO, multi-site enterprise

Your vulnerability program has a firmware blind spot.

  • BIOS-level CVE exposure mapped across your entire fleet
  • CISA KEV cross-referenced — know which firmware CVEs are actively exploited
  • Firmware incident response in minutes, not days
  • The layer your scanners don’t cover — OS, apps, network, and now firmware

What you get

The intelligence layer for firmware

Everything your fleet needs to go from "I don't know" to "I know exactly."

3 → 1
Cross-vendor catalog

Dell, HP, and Lenovo BIOS data normalized into one format. One API call, three vendors.

CVE
CVE enrichment

Every BIOS update parsed for CVE IDs. Enriched with CVSS scores and descriptions from NVD.

KEV
CISA KEV

Actively exploited flag on every CVE. Know which firmware vulnerabilities are real-world threats, not theoretical.

API
Fleet benchmarking

Compare your fleet's BIOS versions against the latest available. Per model, per vendor, with ready-made scripts to pull your inventory.

TXT
Release notes

All three vendors' release notes in one place. Stop hunting across vendor websites for what changed.

KEK
Secure Boot tagging

2011 KEK rotation tracking. UEFI CA 2023, DBX updates, Secure Boot readiness — tagged on every record.


The assessment

BlackLotus drops. “Are we exposed?”

The full fleet assessment — not just looking up a CVE, but mapping exposure across every machine, every vendor.

Without biosapi
  • 01Collect BIOS versions from every machine in the fleet
  • 02Visit each vendor portal separately — Dell, HP, Lenovo
  • 03Download vendor-specific catalogs for your models
  • 04Parse each vendor’s format — all different
  • 05Dig through release notes for CVE references
  • 06Cross-reference each CVE against NVD for CVSS scores
  • 07Normalize everything into one comparable format
  • 08Compare against fleet inventory, model by model
Days of work — per assessment
vs
With biosapi
  • 01One API call per model — everything back in one response
  • 02Latest BIOS, CVEs, KEV status, Secure Boot, version history, download
  • 03Compare against your fleet — all three vendors, normalized
Minutes — same assessment

The math

Honest numbers, no breach math

Real time savings. No made-up breach costs, no theoretical risk quantification.

Fleet assessment
Per cycle, across 3 vendors.
10–20h

We don't claim to prevent breaches. We save your team time and give you firmware visibility you can't get anywhere else. That's it.
