Earlier today I submitted an application for a remote position at a tech/gaming firm, which required a DxDiag and a screenshot of my speedtest results to a server in their country. It seemed appropriate enough, but now I’m concerned about possible risks. From what I understand, the only sensitive details would be my MAC address and motherboard number—otherwise it doesn’t appear too serious. Still, I’m wondering if this was a good move. Since the company name isn’t disclosed, I need to share more about myself. What are your thoughts?

It likely aims to gather information about your computer’s capabilities and configuration, though whether this involves privacy concerns depends on your perspective.
They won’t be able to hack you effectively using DXD data. For Windows, not running it isn’t a problem and is often the recommended path for those seeking a free experience. If you’re looking for a cracked version, DXD won’t indicate anything that supports it, so you’ll need another method to check.
