The Linux Plumbers 2013 Secure Boot track is focusing on current and future development of supporting the UEFI Secure Boot specification across the Linux ecosystem.

The structure will be most likely be discussion oriented sessions on specific topics related to Secure Boot. Some topics may be fit better as a traditional presentation, however those should be limited in number.

With this microconference, we’re aiming to come to a common set of base requirements for Secure Boot support across the Linux ecosystem. With that as a foundation we’ll focus on plans for upstreaming that support in the various components.
