What Is Secure Boot?

Nowadays, the modern computers come in a feature named Secure Boot. Do you have any idea about it? Secure Boot is a part of Microsoft’s Windows 8 and the above versions of Microsoft Windows operating system.

As we know, a traditional BIOS will boot form anywhere, while Secure Boot which is working on the top of UEFI is used to make sure that Windows operating system remains safe from Malware. To put it more clearly, Secure Boot ensures that a device boots using only the software that is trusted by the Original Equipment Manufacturer.

How Does Secure Boot Work?

Once you power on a PC, it starts the process of executing code that configures the processor, memory, and hardware peripherals to make a preparation for the operating system to boot.

During the preparation, Secure Boot checks the signature of firmware code that exists on hardware peripherals like storage deices.

During the boot process, secure Boot will check for an embedded signature inside of the fireware module. If the signature match against a database of signature in Secure Boot, the nodule is allowed to execute.

It can be said that Secure Boot works like a security gate. Code with valid credentials can get through the security gate and execute. Surely, code with bad credentials or no credential will be refused.
