UEFI Plugfest 2017 in Nanjing

My colleague from Insyde, David Chen, talking about security in UEFI

The UEFI Forum hosted a plug-fest and educational seminar in Nanjing, China this week. I have many fond memories of visiting this historic city over a period of 2-3 years.

For those that don't know, a plug-fest is an occasion where folks who provide the different parts of an industry standard ecosystem get together to make sure that they all play nicely together. So, for UEFI, this includes motherboard, plug-in card, OS, system application and BIOS vendors.

These events, along with the SCT (Self-Certification Test) tools, help the wildly diverse group of folks who use UEFI specifications to increase the chances that the blind-date scenario that is the PC industry works harmoniously.

The presentations are being posted on-line here. Insyde posted a few other pictures from the event here.
