Recently it was discovered that an employee was able boot to an operating system stored on a USB drive instead of the Windows 11 installation managed by your team. You plan on disabling USB boot in the BIOS settings, but what additional option should be used to prevent this from occurring again?
BIOS Encrypted File Storage (BEFS)
Correct Incorrect Unanswered
Answer Description
The simplest fix in this scenario is to configure the BIOS to only boot to the Windows 11 installation. You can disable USB booting and change the boot order in the BIOS settings, but this can easily be undone without also setting a BIOS password to ensure unauthenticated users can't undo your changes later.

In computing, BIOS (, BY-oss, -ohss; Basic Input/Output System, also known as the System BIOS, ROM BIOS, BIOS ROM or PC BIOS) is firmware used to provide runtime services for operating systems and programs and to perform hardware initialization during the booting process (power-on startup). The BIOS firmware comes pre-installed on an IBM PC or IBM PC compatible's system board and exists in some UEFI-based systems to maintain compatibility with operating systems that do not support UEFI native operation. The name originates from the Basic Input/Output System used in the CP/M operating system in 1975. The BIOS originally proprietary to the IBM PC has been reverse engineered by some companies (such as Phoenix Technologies) looking to create compatible systems. The interface of that original system serves as a de facto standard.
The BIOS in modern PCs initializes and tests the system hardware components (Power-on self-test), and loads a boot loader from a mass storage device which then initializes a kernel. In the era of DOS, the BIOS provided BIOS interrupt calls for the keyboard, display, storage, and other input/output (I/O) devices that standardized an interface to application programs and the operating system. More recent operating systems do not use the BIOS interrupt calls after startup.Most BIOS implementations are specifically designed to work with a particular computer or motherboard model, by interfacing with various devices especially system chipset. Originally, BIOS firmware was stored in a ROM chip on the PC motherboard. In later computer systems, the BIOS contents are stored on flash
