Hi all,

I am curious about this software: Intel Software Guard extension. It is between of my motherboard drivers. Do I need to install? And what is for that?

Thanks for your replies.

Excuse me. I have forgot to post it.

Here we go:
Mobo: MSI Z490 Unify
Cpu: I7 10700k
Cpu Cooler: Noctua NH-D15
Gpu: MSI 2080 Rtx Gaming X Trio
Psu: Seasonic Focus Plus PX 850w Platinum
Ram: 32GB(2x16Gb) 3200mhz HyperX Fury
SSD: 1tb Samsung 970 Evo Plus
Hdd:2tb Wd Black
Case: BeQuiet Pure Base 500dx
Os: Windows 10 64bit 20h2 version

What I meant that i have downloaded the latest drivers from my motherboards official webpage and this one was there as well.

Excuse me if my post was not clear.

I just want to clarify that should I install or not?
If I am not wrong not long time ago there were some vulnerability problems regarding SGX.

Yes, there is a history of vulnerabilities.

Have not heard or noted much about SGX overall - Not installed on my computer but that was not a conscious decision either way.

That said, the complexities and consequences of installing or not installing SGX are well outside of my comfort zone.

I will defer to the more security minded Forum members.
