Event details
Thank you for giving us this opportunity today.
We are concerned about the Secure Boot certificate expiration issue. In Japan, we manage approximately 100,000 PCs as well as servers located throughout the country. If a large number of devices were to become unbootable at the same time, it would have a serious impact on our business continuity. Therefore, we would like to take preventive action before any issues occur.
We have several questions
First, is there any risk that devices could become unbootable if they have not been regularly updated with Windows Updates up to no
If you ask that broadly, the answer would be YES, but totally unrelated to Secure Boot. When machines exposed to the Internet are not up to date, they can catch malware. Some poorly written malware can result in the machine getting unbootable as an unintended consequence, and some malware/randomware deliberately prevent your machine from booting.
But none of the Secure Boot expiration times will directly make any machine unbootable.
