Heads is a great firmware providing a unique security feature Measured Boot with a Nitrokey USB key as root of trust. Technically Heads is based on Linux, some client tools and bash scripts plumbing everything together. In theory this Measured Boot feature could be added to other open firmwares such as TianoCore. In this session we want to brain storm potential alternative designs and their pros and cons.
