FIRMWARE FILE SYSTEM-BASED SECURITY SOLUTION AND IMPLEMENTATION FOR EFI SYSTEM ABSTRACT Beyond legacy BIOS, EFI (Extensible Firmware Interface) firmware has some significant advantage. EFI writes in C language and supports modular develop. EFI has its own EFI Driver Mode and Firmware File System and other advanced features.
