Tool : a simple PowerShell script for UEFI, VeraCrypt, and more security information.

UEFI Secure Boot keys, used to sign the first stage boot loader, are expiring in June 2026

First, let's see this information that could highlight the intrusion capabilities of a hacking attack on an information system in time and space:

1. Secure Boot, even with old keys – protects BEFORE Windows starts

Secure Boot protects against:

• bootkits
• UEFI rootkits
• bootloader tampering
• malware that injects itself before Windows loads

It is a hardware + firmware protection, enforced by UEFI.

Even if your keys are old, Secure Boot is still:

• much safer than having Secure Boot disabled
• a firmware‑level protection
• impossible to bypass without physical access + complex attacks

Old keys do not mean “insecure”; it only means Microsoft will replace them in the future.

2. VeraCrypt System Encryption – protects AFTER the bootloader starts

VeraCrypt protects:

• the data on your disk
• the confidentiality of your files
• access to your system if someone steals your laptop

But it does NOT protect against:

• bootkits
• UEFI rootkits
• bootloader tampering
• firmware‑level attacks

Because VeraCrypt:

• replaces the Windows bootloader
• disables Secure Boot
• is not cryptographically signed for UEFI
• does not provide protection against pre‑boot attacks

One basic script created by copilot to show some info:

News : PRO GEOMETRIC MERMAID EDITOR – PYQT6 (v1.0) sell on gumroad

Today, I implemented a new system for selling my products, cheaper and more permissive, called: BUY AND HAVE MORE - SYSTEM. The idea is to have your product, specific tool, simple and good with a low price. I used many programming languages: Python, C#, Godot, FASM... I used artificial intelligence, I can use testing software ... This is my system that will help users and developers by: - using a low price for your tools - help work of developers with low prices, nothing can be 100% free - maintain the same software in time: on price, lifetime, and updates - buy more products from users and me, send me your development tasks - based on users asking who will have these products - do you want a specific development: send me an email with your price - you can ask even artist's work - don't spend your time, just use my time at a low price

The first product on this system is PRO GEOMETRIC MERMAID EDITOR – PYQT6 (v1.0) sell on gumroad.

From sales, I will reinvest in my technical development, in producing source code and producing art, according to my skills.

See this simple video tutorial with this python project script.
