- Summary:
- Trusted Platform Modules (TPMs) are small, inexpensive chips which provide a limited set of security functions. They are most commonly found as a motherboard component in laptops and desktops aimed at the corporate or government markets, but can also be found in many consumer-grade machines and servers or purchased as independent components. This book describes the primary uses for TPMs and practical considerations such as: when TPMs can and should be used, when they shouldn't be used, what advantages they provide and how to benefit from them. Topics covered include: * When to use a TPM * TPM concepts and functionality * Programming introduction * Provisioning: getting the TPM ready to use * First steps: TPM keys, machine authentication, data protection, attestation * Other TPM features * Software and specifications * Troubleshooting * Appendices contain basic cryptographic concepts, command equivalence, requirements charts and complete code samples.
