INTEL-SA-00075 Discovery Tool will walk you through a few steps to detect and mitigate the INTEL-SA-00075 chip vulnerability.

This vulnerability affects Intel's Active Management Technology (AMT) and could allow hackers to bypass authentication elements in remote management hardware and will enable them to take over your computer. This bug was discovered by Intel and believed to be in existence for over a decade before it was found.

In true Intel fashion, no portable version is available for this one-time tool, so it requires installation.

The Detection and Mitigation Tool is offered in two versions:

The first is an interactive GUI tool that, when run, discovers the hardware and software details of the device and provides an indication of risk assessment. This version is recommended when local evaluation of the system is desired.

The second version is a console executable that can perform the risk assessment and perform recommended mitigation steps. It can optionally save the discovery information to the Windows registry or an XML file. This version is more convenient for IT administrators wishing to perform bulk discovery and mitigation operations across multiple machines.

A help file called INTEL-SA-00075 Detection and Mitigation Guide 1.0-en.pdf is included in the zip if you need to run it from the command-line. It provides all the command-line options and more. Those using the GUI most likely won't need it.
