Which UEFI/BIOS setup option allows security settings to perform certain tasks?

• A. Secure Boot
• B. LoJack
• C. Fast Boot
• D. TPM

Answer: (B)

The effect here is about a security feature that operates through the system firmware to enable protective actions. LoJack for Laptops is an anti-theft service that’s integrated with the BIOS/UEFI so security operations can be carried out even if the operating system isn’t running. When this option is enabled in the firmware setup, security settings can perform tasks such as locating the device, remotely locking it, or remotely wiping data.

Secure Boot focuses on keeping the boot chain trusted by only allowing signed software to start, but it doesn’t perform theft-protection actions. Fast Boot just speeds up the startup process. TPM provides a hardware security module for storing keys and performing cryptographic tasks, but the scenario described emphasizes enabling security tasks through firmware-based protection, which LoJack is designed to support.
