IIRC, MS require the device to support Secure Boot, but whether or not you can disable it or whether you can add other signing keys is undefined (and I have no idea what vendors do). (Originally the requirement was it must be always enabled and only the OEM could add keys, but that has since changed.)

There's a port of Ubuntu available. It isn't yet complete but it does boot on Windows on Arm devices.
