Winbloat has the absolutely insecure "secure boot", meanwhile a properly secure Linux machine with libreboot (or any Android device) has something that sounds similar called verified boot. The difference is one of them is absolutely not secure and spoiler alert its the microslop one.
Ideally a modern Linux system should be able to implement FDE and a verified boot setup but sadly for software or hardware reasons that might not be possible for most setups
