I second SavvyWolf. Full disk encryption is better than SecureBoot. SB is security theater for people who don't know what they're doing and don't know how to avoid getting their laptop infected in the first place. As I said before, SB has already been defeated. Every hacker/malware can bypass it already. It's like pretending you have armor on and going headlong into a sword fight.

Secureboot isn't worth the 1's and 0's it's made of. It's the illusion of security, since it was already defeated. It only inhibits incompetent hackers and malware. The weakest link in all computer security is always the user. SB just causes more problems than solutions.
