    State of secure boot after upgrade


    I did upgrade to Win10 2 days ago (finally).
    I just realizing now that secure boot is not enable.
    It also says that secure boot is not supported.
    Can I go into the BIOS and enable secure boot now without compromising my system ?

    :)

    Windows 8 Secure Boot Feature: Not So Secure?

    So Linux is switching to secure boot also? Or they have to because of UEFI?

    • Linux

    Here is a statement from a Kernal Developer at Red Hat:

    I'm not sure this exploits the legacy BIOS but rather it exploits the legacy boot method on MBR drives, injecting a signed key before the OS boots, which you are correct in that it has nothing to do with Windows 8. And the simplest fix would just be to require boot drives use GPT when Secure Boot is enabled in UEFI.
