Windows 8 and later have native support for TPM 2.0. Windows 7 can install official patch to add TPM 2.0 support. [94] Windows Vista through Windows 10 have native support for TPM 1.2. The Trusted Platform Module 2.0 (TPM 2.0) has been supported by the Linux kernel since version 3.20 (2012) [95] [96] [97]
The static chain of trust starts when the platform powers on (or the platform is reset), which resets all PCRs to their default value. For server platforms, the first measurement is made by hardware (i.e., the processor) to measure a digitally signed module (called an Authenticated Code Module or ACM) provided by the chipset manufacturer.
In current Trusted Computing specifications, there are two hardware components: the Trusted Platform Module (TPM), which will provide secure storage of cryptographic keys and a secure cryptographic co-processor, and a curtained memory feature in the CPU. In NGSCB, there are two software components, the Nexus, a security kernel that is part of ...

When used in conjunction with a compatible Trusted Platform Module (TPM), BitLocker can validate the integrity of boot and system files before decrypting a protected volume; an unsuccessful validation will prohibit access to a protected system. [6] [7] BitLocker was briefly called Secure Startup before Windows Vista's release to manufacturing. [6]
The Microsoft products Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows RT make use of a Trusted Platform Module to facilitate BitLocker Drive Encryption. [22] Other known applications with runtime encryption and the use of secure enclaves include the Signal messenger [23] and the e-prescription service ("E-Rezept") [24] by the German government.
[8] The redesign focuses on simplicity, ease of use, and flexibility, [2] addressing some of the deficiencies of Windows 10. [4] Most interfaces in Windows 11 feature rounded geometry, refreshed iconography, new typography, and a refreshed color palette. In addition, translucency and shadows are made more prevalent throughout the system. [9]
Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) is a set of tools based on Windows PE to help diagnose and recover from serious errors which may be preventing Windows from booting successfully. Windows RE is installed alongside Windows Vista and later, and may be booted from hard disks, optical media (such as an operating system installation disc) and PXE ...
