No, DriveShield and MacShield protect the hard drive. They do not protect the BIOS or CMOS, and it is recommended you password protect these areas. Note: You need to change your BIOS settings so that the primary boot device is your hard disk drive instead of your floppy, CD-ROM, or any other removable media drive. After making these changes, password protect your BIOS settings.
