Prevent firmware downgrades

Summary

Devices should have mechanisms that protect their firmware (anti-rollback) from being downgraded.

Description

Attackers may attempt to exploit vulnerabilities in older firmware versions that have been patched in newer releases. Anti-rollback features help to mitigate the risk of exploitation by preventing the installation of outdated and insecure firmware.
