No one has mentioned 2FA. I suspect the passwords are not all that is needed.

I’ve never seen or heard of 2FA being needed for BIOS access. However maybe we could consider “physical presence” as one type of factor, which does reduce the risk a lot.

Also, the article mentioned "partial passwords". I take that to mean the BIOS password was two parts, and only one part of the password was exposed.
