Secure Boot is a fundamental security feature designed to ensure that only authenticated and unaltered software is executed during the system's startup process. By verifying the integrity and authenticity of each component in the boot sequence, Secure Boot protects the system against unauthorized code execution and potential security breaches.​

This section provides a comprehensive guide to implementing Secure Boot. It covers essential steps such as key generation, fuse burning, and component signing. Additionally, it introduces the concept of UEFI Secure Boot, which extends the chain of trust beyond the initial bootloader, offering an added layer of security for the system.​
