Turned off UEFI secure boot to get Linux Mint dual booting with Windows. Everything works now, but I'm not sure what I'm giving up by leaving it off. Will turning it back on stop Linux from booting?

A game asked me to enable secure boot, which is how I found out it had been off on my PC for years. What does it really protect against for a normal home user? Any downside to just leaving it on?

Need to send my accountant a copy of my passport and tax forms. Normal email feels risky. Does Outlook have a secure option, and does the other person need anything special to open it?
