Question about HP BIOS under HP TOOLS

[MrxBurrito]

Hello all, I am cross-posting this question that I asked in another forum to see if I could be pointed in the right direction.

Please forgive my ignorance I am good at a lot of things but understanding bios mods is not one of them. My question is the following. I've read that when you want to know if your Bios is RSA Signed you run Phoenix Tools and if it says decrypted then you are screwed.

Now, what about the bios under HP_TOOLS Current Bios folder? There is a bios file 01793.bin and a 01793.sig, which to my understanding is used for recovery (I dont know). When I run Phoenix Tools on this it does not say decrypted. So is there a possibility to modify and re-flash this bios? Or is it still RSA Signed?

Could you please point me in the right direction to understand this?

Anyone with the knowledge to answer this?

I think if you can find a way to flash the modified bios, then it doesn't matter whether its encrypted/signed to begin with
