Intel® Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0

A TPM is a hardware-based security device that addresses the growing concern on boot process integrity and offers better data protection. TPM protects the system start-up process by ensuring it is tamper-free before releasing system control to the operating system. A TPM device provides secured storage to store data, such as security keys and passwords. In addition, a TPM device has encryption and hash functions.

AXXTPMENC8 implements TPM as per TPM PC Client specifications revision 2.0 by the Trusted Computing Group (TCG)
