Embedding com32 modules and ldlinux.sys into one file
...EFI executable.
I agree with HPA that there's likely nothing this accomplishes.
Burning the boot loader into the system firmware chip (BIOS or UEFI)
means it's now difficult to tune/upgrade, not protected from changes.
Security is a broad topic. It's about protecting _something_ from
_who/what_ doing _an_action_ and/or observing when it might occur.

The bootloader will be protected from changes because it will be burned to a flash which is read only (by hardware).
That doesn't mean there can't be some other security holes...
