    If you enable Secure Boot you should also set a BIOS password for this very reason.

      So, if you set a bios password either way, which benefit does secureboot give?

      I think you can reset a bios password by taking the CMOS battery out or something?

        Not sure if this works these days, but on older systems there was a reset bios config jumper and pulling the cmos battery.
