Abstract:
One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for managing a firmware password of a User Equipment (UE) are provided. In an example, the UE determines that a first firmware password variable is indicative of a firmware password of a firmware of the UE. The UE transmits the first firmware password variable to a first computer for storage in a first dataset. The UE generates a password. The UE sets a second firmware password variable, in a second dataset stored on the UE, to the password. The UE transmits the second firmware password variable including the password to the first computer for storage in the first dataset. The UE sets the firmware password of the firmware of the UE to the second firmware password variable including the password.
