The bit about "two touches" seems to imply physical access, so in absence of TPM the attacker can replace your bootloader with little effort vs with TPM they'd need to break TPM.
- saagarjha 3y agoYou can fix this by asking for the password before letting the attacker replace the bootloader.
- lostmsu 3y agoSorry, I missed the bit about Secure Boot. Yes, with Secure Boot and password your data is safe. But you have to type the password to boot your system, which is impractical for remote and headless systems, or even local systems that need to be available remotely.
