Secure boot is a process BIOS uses that requires a password. It's just a security measure for people getting into the BIOS on your system. So you have two options, you can put a password in the BIOS settings, or you can leave it off. It's alright to leave it off, it's only under certain exceptions or configurations that it's turned on.
