Tests 2FA solution for login verification via google PAP module

I have read that this can be easily switched off via rescue mode. Is it possible to disable this solution in case someone has physical access to the machine. So that the 2FA is always active

    Sure just use full-disk encryption with Secure Boot and TPM unlock.

If someone have physical access to machine he/she can do anything. AFAIK nothing can stop him/her to make the changes.

  • which means that we have basically just debunked the myth of all these safeguards and appearances of being able to do something. in the end, all it takes is a backdoor and we can shove all these pseudo-security-solutions up our arses Commented Mar 4, 2023 at 12:02
  • @SantaMonica, we talk about physical access, right? Commented Mar 4, 2023 at 14:17
  • assuming that the new boards and cpu have a so-called "god mode" - amt etc it can be assumed that a potential hole or bad guy has "physical access too" in this way, am I wrong? Commented Mar 4, 2023 at 14:50
  • @SantaMonica, can be. But I see too many if's :) Commented Mar 4, 2023 at 15:09
  • so is there a solution or not? Commented Mar 4, 2023 at 15:13
