What does hãng sản xuất intel Security Assist do, and why is it installed?
Also, (how) does it relate khổng lồ the IME, & is it reasonable lớn believe that it provides/facilitates the provision of back-doors into the OS. (After nearly a year, I"ve still been unable lớn find any meaningful information about it in Google)
Update - This question has been viewed over 26000 times, và is one of the first results when looking for but no meaningful answer, so I"m adding a bounty.

Old Update - There have been some answers below confirming its part of the IME platform, but this does explain what the benefits / utility of the program is (particularly to the user).

Intel Security Assist (ISA) is part of
Intel Active Management công nghệ (AMT) defined as :
Intel Active Management technology (AMT) is hardware & firmware technology for remote out-of-band management of personal computers, in order to lớn monitor, maintain, update, upgrade, and repair them. ... Hãng sản xuất intel AMT includes hardware-based remote management, security, nguồn management, & remote configuration features that enable independent remote access khổng lồ AMT-enabled PCs.
According to lớn some reports, ISA connects once a week to intel servers & passeson some unknown information.
It is not an essential service. On the Dell computer on which I"m writing thisanswer, ISA was not even installed for Windows 10, although
Intel(R) Management và Security Applications are indeed installed.
AMT & ISA are suspected of using a hardware component which is baked intoall post-2006 intel boards and which can be used to remotely control thecomputer. This hardware component is enabled or not when the motherboardis manufactured and an access key is baked into it via a certificate.Its presence & possible access are at the discretion of the manufacturer,but I would guess that it would normally not be enabled for consumer-grademotherboards, being more enterprise-oriented.
AMT was intended khổng lồ give enterprise IT managers greater control over themachines on their network, which it did in a big way.Starting with AMT 6.0, it includes KVM Remote Control to lớn give ITadministrators complete access to lớn the keyboard, video, and mouse of a targetclient.In AMT 7.0, intel makes it possible khổng lồ use a 3G cellular signal to send a remote kill command for deactivating a stolen computer.
However, it is not AMT but ISA which is the subject here.To answer the questions raised by davidgo :
What it does
Nobody really knows, but it probably passes some statistics to lớn Intel.It is unknown (but possible) whether it can accept commands from Intelfor active interference, but no such reports exist.
Why it is installed by Microsoft by Default
It is not installed by Microsoft by default.It might be pre-installed by the manufacturer of the computer,and this might possibly indicate that AMT is activated in the hardware.
What security implications it has
Probably none. It is not ISA which can serve as an attack vector, but rather
AMT. There are many reports from users who disabled or uninstalled ISA with noill effects, so it seems rather harmless.
As further information,the intel Management Engine is activated in a compatible PC’s BIOS,which gains one access lớn several BIOS functions, but not before a passwordis set:
Within these same BIOS screens, you can perform several different low-level AMT-related configuration tasks, mostly related lớn when AMT is activatedas a function of the current computer power-level. If your BIOS has no hãng sản xuất intel MEentries, then probably AMT was not enabled by the motherboard manufacturer.
If you would lượt thích to disable the hardware component of AMT,the Git
Hub projectme_cleanermight help, but there is already a chance that it is disabled.I also quote this from the project, which I actually take as a warningagainst an unsuccessful hack:
Starting from Nehalem the intel ME firmware can"t be removed anymore: without a valid firmware the PC shuts off forcefully after 30 minutes. This project is an attempt to lớn remove as much code as possible from such firmware without falling into the 30 minutes recovery mode.

Conclusion: ISA in my opinion is harmless. It can be blocked in the firewallor its system service can be disabled with no harmful effects.I would not advise on its uninstallation, because reinstalling it backmight be difficult.
