Because you provided a link about Windows 10/Server 2016. There are some significant differences between Windows 8.1 and Windows 10.

Surely secure boot should be enabled for UEFI
Rufus only asks you to temporarily disable Secure Boot, and the reason it needs to do that is because, if your ISO contains a file that is larger than 4GB, then you cannot use FAT32 to write it but have to use NTFS (as FAT32 cannot accommodate files that are larger than 4GB, a technical limitation of that file system). But this means that you also need an NTFS UEFI driver & bootloader to boot that drive in UEFI mode.
Rufus can and does install those files for you. However, because of Microsoft's arbitrary decisions (point 4 here) with regards to what can and cannot be signed for Secure Boot, the files that Rufus uses, which are licensed under the GPLv3, cannot be signed for Secure Boot, which means that Secure Boot must be TEMPORARILY disabled for the first boot where the NTFS bootloader has to be used. But of course you can reenable it afterwards, and you should understand that, because Rufus is itself digitally signed and if you have validated the SHA-1 of the Windows ISO you used, temporarily disabling Secure Boot is not as great a security risk as people tend to believe (in other words it's not because it's called "Secured Something" that it should never be disabled, ever).
For more information on this, you can read this entry from the Rufus FAQ.
But again, the message you have gotten for Rufus did mention very explicitly (I know, because I'm the one who wrote that message) that the disabling of Secure Boot was only to be temporary. Oh, and I also made sure that, besides that message, there was a direct link to the FAQ entry I pointed above, that user can consult if they need more info about why Rufus asks them to temporarily disable Secure Boot. So please try to also pay attention to what the application tells you, as it might answer your questions...
