The Intel Management Engine always runs as long as the motherboard is receiving power, even when the computer is turned off. This issue can be mitigated with deployment of a hardware device, which is able to disconnect mains power. Intel's main competitor AMD has incorporated the equivalent AMD Secure Technology (formally called Platform Security Processor) in virtually all of its post-2013 CPUs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Management_Engine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Management_Engine Ylian Saint-Hilaire, principal Engineer working on remote management software including hardware manageability: https://youtu.be/1seNMSamtxM?feature=shared https://youtu.be/1seNMSamtxM?feature=shared https://github.com/Ylianst https://github.com/Ylianst
