  1. Open the Settings app
  2. Click Privacy then Device Security
  
  The Security Events aren't clickable.
  
  A default Ubuntu install only gets us "Security Level 1". The highest
  level is "Security Level 3".
  
  There isn't anything an Ubuntu user can do to get to a higher security
  level from the Device Security screen.
  
  If a user attempts to get their system to a higher security level, I
  think they could break their system since this isn't something we
  currently support.
  
  Therefore, I think we ought to hide/disable the screen for Ubuntu 22.10.
  We can work towards better integrating this screen for Ubuntu in future
  releases.
  
  I'm attaching several screenshots although it's worth trying out the
  feature for yourself too.
