Hello,
So this is quite important. Those who are using the 2011 windows secure
boot certificates should know that they will expire in June, a couple
days from now. Essentially, what the secure boot does is it checks
certain things to make sure the trusted device software baked in by
microsoft and the OEM original equipment manufacturer are the only ones
booting up. Should you fail to update these, you can use your computer,
but your security will degrade over time. My laptop is completely fine
as it's new I've checked.
Go to settings windows I - windows 10/11.

Device security
Use either object nav for NVDA or root pc to jaws in the case of jaws to
check the info. If it says all the required updates are installed or
something like that i.e. the 2023 windows secure boot certificate, then
you're okay.
Best regards,
Muhammad.
