Getting started

This technical note explains how to enable and disable password protection on SNS firewalls' UEFI control panel.

For security reasons, before enabling Secure Boot, you are advised to protect access to the SNS firewall's UEFI control panel with a password.
If Secure Boot is enabled by default on the SNS firewall, we recommend protecting access to the UEFI's control panel as soon as possible.

IMPORTANT
The password you set must be kept in a safe and secure location. If you misplace your password, you will no longer be able to update the SNS firewall's UEFI. Stormshield will not be able to help you recover this password.
