BIOS Version and Date Check

InsightVM
1

We have an audit requirement to verify BIOS dates and Versions ( cant be older than 3 years) when we were on Nessus they had a plugin that easily checked for that and gave us that output, but can not find that type of that check on Rapid 7 InsightVM at all.

Has anyone seen, found or written anything like that? that would look for BIOS and display from the windows registry perhaps or from the windows run cmd “msinfo32” which provides that info? to display during a scan?

thanks for any info/help

I chatted with some other folks on the team about this, and one suggestion was to create a custom policy in InsightVM with a rule that retrieves the BIOS info via WMI or reg key. There’s a little more info on retrieving that info here.
