Secure Boot is a security standard developed by members of the PC industry to help make sure that a device boots using only software that is trusted by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). When the PC starts, Secure Boot checks the signature of each piece of boot software (drivers, EFI applications, and the operating system). If the signatures are valid, the PC boots, and the OS takes control of the hardware. This prevents malware (such as rootkits) from loading during the startup process. Windows 11 requires Secure Boot to be enabled by default as part of its system requirements to provide enhanced security.
