Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.

 

To get the answer to this question, HP has identified a potential security vulnerability with a UEFI rootkit (LoJax). This rootkit can be loaded into a vulnerable system UEFI firmware which then has the ability to write to the system disk and tamper with the operating system. Click here to know more about HPSBHF03595 rev. 5 - LoJax UEFI Rootkit.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.

I have no idea of what anyone replied to me providing an answer or solution!! HP talks as everyone is an IT expert, of which I am not.
