# cat /sys/kernel/security/lockdown

none [integrity] confidentiality

# bootctl status

System:
     Firmware: n/a (n/a)
  Secure Boot: enabled
   Setup Mode: user
 Boot into FW: supported

Also see attached dmesg: lines 68-69,102 for secure boot; lines 699-709
where it loads two keys I signed manually at some point; lines 1106-1121
were probably after reinstalling virtualbox.

It was under dkms there...
