I am looking for the Letter of Volatility for the Altera USB-Blaster II. I was previously provided under case #05156156 to another member. Can you please e-mail it to me. Thanks

Hello Intel,

Thank you for providing the LoV. My security team has a question for you. In the LoV for the Altera USB-Blaster II, It says "The firmware does support programming the non-volatile firmware storage memory as well as the non-volatile UFM. These features are only internally available but the functionality is there."

By "only internally available", does that mean only Intel personnel can program the non-volatile firmware (through the use of proprietary software, etc.)?

We need to make sure that anyone in general cannot edit the non-volatile memory. If we can, is there a procedure to sanitize it?
