When I am trying to install some new software using sudo apt-get install I get this following message. I am scared of pressing ok. I have no idea what secure boot means and don't want to go through this.

 Your system has UEFI Secure Boot enabled.                                                                                                                     │ 
 │                                                                                                                                                               │ 
 │ UEFI Secure Boot requires additional configuration to work with third-party drivers.                                                                          │ 
 │                                                                                                                                                               │ 
 │ The system will assist you in configuring UEFI Secure Boot. To permit the use of third-party drivers, a new Machine-Owner Key (MOK) has been generated. This  │ 
 │ key now needs to be enrolled in your system's firmware.                                                                                                       │ 
 │                                                                                                                                                               │ 
 │ To ensure that this change is being made by you as an authorized user, and not by an attacker, you must choose a password now and then confirm the change     │ 
 │ after reboot using the same password, in both the "Enroll MOK" and "Change Secure Boot state" menus that will be presented to you when this system reboots.   │ 
 │                                                                                                                                                               │ 
 │ If you proceed but do not confirm the password upon reboot, Ubuntu will still be able to boot on your system but any hardware that requires third-party       │ 
 │ drivers to work correctly may not be usable.

Power off the computer and star with the BIOS. Go to security menu and Disable secure boot. Other option, please verify the topic: "Installing third-party drivers requires configuring Secure Boot"
