## Introduction

This plugin is used to ensure that the machine does not enter a low power mode
when updates are being performed.

## Vendor ID Security

This protocol does not create a device and thus requires no vendor ID set.

## External Interface Access

This plugin requires access to the dbus interface `org.freedesktop.login1`.

## Version Considerations

This plugin has been available since fwupd version `1.4.0`.
