Frequently Asked Questions

D-Secure Mac support (Coming Soon) covers all Apple architectures including legacy Intel, T1, T2 security chips, and the entire Apple Silicon range (M1, M2, M3, and M4 series). Deployment is handled natively via a single Terminal command in Recovery Mode.

The software automatically checks the MDM (Mobile Device Management) status of Mac devices (Coming Soon) during diagnostics. It identifies if a device is locked or enrolled in a corporate management system, ensuring policy-aligned processing.

Via PXE network boot, you can diagnose up to 255 machines simultaneously on a single network segment, making it highly efficient for high-volume ITAD and refurbishing operations.

Yes. D-Secure Hardware Diagnostics boots from a USB drive or over PXE and needs an internet connection to validate the license and upload the signed diagnostic report to the D-Secure cloud console.

The tool performs 10+ automated tests (CPU, RAM, SMART, Battery, CMOS, Motherboard) and provides guided manual tests for Keyboard, Display, Audio, Webcam, and USB ports for 100% component verification.

Yes, every report is digitally signed and generated in non-editable PDF and CSV formats. This ensures the integrity of the hardware health data for audits and resale grading.
