Cisco VPN client issue

Windows 8.1 with Bing, came with a netbook computer.
Need to make work the Cisco VPN client which gives the following error on a connect attempt:

Secure VPN Connection terminated locally by the Client, Reason: 440 Driver Failure

Tried this solution to install Citrix DNE. Did not help.

The event viewer shows that the driver signature can not be verified.
Desperatly did the following to make it work:
  1. Turned off the BitLocker. Well, why I need a secured notebook which I can not use?
  2. Disabled UEFI's Secured Boot. 
  3. Executed the following commands:
    bcdedit -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
    bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON
  4. Reinstalled the Cisco VPN client.
Works now!
