Blue Screen Kernel security check failed

I've had this blue screen on a brand new install of Windows 11, I've updated all drivers, I've also run sfc scan and DISM commands, none returned any errors. I've uploaded the minidump to OneDrive, and I'd appreciate it if anyone could take a look at it and tell me what could be causing this error.

Here's the link to the minidump file: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AtII6RheVqT8hNdiUUUN7wg5OXwsIQ?e=Tqr93R

The computer had BSOD with Windows 11 and Windows 10.

The findings are consistent with malfunctioning hardware.

Some of the steps that were performed earlier in this thread may be repeated.

Testing hardware using software stress tests unfortunately often displays pass when there is malfunctioning hardware (false negative).

Typically swap testing is required.

  1. Download and install one of these temperature monitoring software:

Speccy

https://www.ccleaner.com/speccy

HWMonitor

https://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html

Speedfan https://www.almico.com/speedfan.php

  1. Run Prime95 https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/16474-prime95-stress-test-your-cpu.html Test for 3 hours.

Make note of when to abort testing in the link.

Post images or share links into this thread.

Record the continuous testing time and the highest temperature.

  1. Run Furmark https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/13081-furmark-gpu-stress-test.html Test for 30 minutes.

Make note of when to abort testing in the link.

Post images or share links into this thread.

Record the continuous testing time and the highest temperature.

  1. Run Memtest86 (free version) https://www.memtest86.com/ Run two tests of four passes each (total eight passes)

Take pictures and post images or share links into this thread.

Memtest86 has a feature to create text reports.

If possible, include the text reports with the images in the share links.

  1. Run HD Tune

https://www.hdtune.com/

Post images or share links for results on these tabs:

a) Health

b) Benchmark

c) Full error scan

These can be performed overnight while sleeping:

a) Memtest86

b) HD Tune full error scan

    I've run all the tests and here's the link to everything I've collected.

    There's one thing I've noticed today, though. I don't know if this may help or not but it seems most of the crashes I can remember happened while I was using either Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome. There was a blue screen the first time I ran prime95, but just before it happened, a friend messaged me on Discord and I opened a browser to find a picture to send him. Once I opened Edge this time, it crashed. Then I ran prime95 again, for, I think 3 and a half hours, and there were no crashes, but I also didn't really do much other than monitor the temperatures. Edge also hangs sometimes, especially when opening it, which is why I have been trying to get used to Chrome again

    I may have spoken a little too soon. The computer restarted while I was out, but it didn't generate any memory or mini dumps. Reliability history only says it shut down unexpectedly, and msinfo only shows an error with chrome.exe as the latest event.
