Claim 0:
1. A method comprising:
delegating, by a resource-constrained device, a privilege to a basic input/output system, wherein the privilege allows the basic input/output system to authenticate an endpoint device on behalf of the resource-constrained device;
generating an asymmetric security key that includes a private key and a public key;
transmitting the public key to the basic input/output system, wherein the public key is included in a proxy certificate generated by the basic input/output system; and
establishing a secure session between the basic input/output system and the endpoint device using the private key and the proxy certificate, wherein the secure session is used by the basic input/output system to authenticate and verify that the endpoint device is authorized to perform an operation.
