Hardware verification with RFID-stored build information

An electronic device, comprising:

• one or more hardware components;
• a wireless radio tag to store configuration information of the electronic device for hardware verification, the configuration information including build information for the one or more hardware components in the electronic device;
• a memory and processing system to implement a bootloader to:
• identify current information for the one or more hardware components;
• determine, for the one or more hardware components, whether the current information matches the build information based on a vendor identifier (ID) associated with the one or more hardware components and included in the current information and the build information;
• responsive to the determination that the current information does not match the build information, store the current information in a memory of the wireless radio tag for the one or more hardware components;
• and
• limit functionality of the one or more hardware components.

A system, comprising:

• a wireless radio tag to store build information for hardware verification of a hardware component installed in a device during manufacture;
• a bootloader that is executable in the device to:
• obtain current information corresponding to the hardware component;
• determine whether the current information matches the build information of the hardware component based on a vendor identifier (ID) associated with the hardware component and included in the current information and the build information;
• responsive to a determination that the current information does not match the build information, store the current information that does not match the build information for the hardware component in a memory of the wireless radio tag;
• and
• limit functionality of the hardware component.
