zmeuljust remove the bloody thing from the BIOS
also ASUS, MSI and whomever else has it

LeiesoldatThis is Gigabyte trying to mitigate the fallout from their atrocious lack of security and backdoors in the UEFI BIOS of 250+ motherboard models that was revealed in the last couple of days: arstechnica.com/security/2023/06/millions-of-pc-motherboards-were-sold-with-a-firmware-backdoor/.

GFreemanTo fortify system security, GIGABYTE has implemented stricter security checks during the operating system boot process. These measures are designed to detect and prevent any possible malicious activities, providing users with enhanced protection:

• 1. Signature Verification: GIGABYTE has bolstered the validation process for files downloaded from remote servers. This enhanced verification ensures the integrity and legitimacy of the contents, thwarting any attempts by attackers to insert malicious code.
• 2. Privilege Access Limitations: GIGABYTE has enabled standard cryptographic verification of remote server certificates. This guarantees that files are exclusively downloaded from servers with valid and trusted certificates, ensuring an added layer of protection.

ZoneDymoGIGABYTE Technology, has always prioritized cybersecurity and information security.

What they dont prioritize is the physical safety of your PC, that can blow up / burn down for all they care, but hey, at least your data wont fall in the wrong hands...or in anyone's hands for that matter, right?
