Description
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 on laptops and desktops aimed at the corporate or government markets, but can also be found on many consumer-grade machines and servers, or purchased as independent components.
Their role is to serve as a Root of Trust - a highly trusted component from which we can bootstrap trust in other parts of a system.
TPMs are most useful for three kinds of tasks: remotely identifying a machine, or machine authentication; providing hardware protection of secrets, or data protection; and providing verifiable evidence about a machine's state, or attestation.
