+@subsection Command line and menuentry editor protection
+
+The TPM key protector provides full disk encryption support on servers or
+virtual machine images, meanwhile keeping the boot process unattended. This
+prevents service disruptions by eliminating the need for manual password input
+during startup, improving system uptime and continuity. It is achieved by TPM,
+which verifies the integrity of boot components by checking cryptographic
+hashes against securely stored values, to confirm the disks are unlocked in a
+trusted state.
+
+However, for users to access the system interactively, some form of
+authentication is still required, as the disks are not unlocked by an
+authorized user. This raised concerns about using an unprotected
+@samp{command-line interface} (@pxref{Command-line interface}), as anyone could
+execute commands to access decrypted data. To address this issue, the LUKS
+password is used to ensure that only authorized users are granted access to the
+interface. Additionally, the @samp{menu entry editor} (@pxref{Menu entry
+editor}) is also safeguarded by the LUKS password, as modifying a boot entry is
+effectively the same as altering the @file{grub.cfg} file read from encrypted
+files.
+
+It is worth mentioning that the built-in password support, as described in
+@samp{Authentication and Authorization in GRUB} (@pxref{Authentication and
+authorisation}), can also be used to protect the command-line interface from
+unauthorized access. However, it is not recommended to rely on this approach as
+it is an optional step. Setting it up requires additional manual intervention,
+which increases the risk of password leakage during the process. Moreover, the
+superuser list must be well maintained, and the password used cannot be
+synchronized with LUKS key rotation.
