  2. Trusted Platform Module - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trusted_Platform_Module

    Components of a Trusted Platform Module complying with the TPM version 1.2 standard. Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is an international standard for a secure cryptoprocessor, a dedicated microcontroller designed to secure hardware through integrated cryptographic keys.

  3. Trusted Execution Technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trusted_Execution_Technology

    The measurements of the ACM and BIOS code modules are extended to PCR0, which is said to hold the static core root of trust measurement (CRTM) as well as the measurement of the BIOS Trusted Computing Base (TCB). The BIOS measures additional components into PCRs as follows: PCR0 – CRTM, BIOS code, and Host Platform Extensions [a]

  4. InstantGo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/InstantGo

    Trusted Platform Module 2.0; CPU/chipset/BIOS support for S0ix "Low Power S0 Idle" power state; On Windows 8.1, supporting InstantGo and having a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 chip will allow the device to use a passive device encryption system. [4] [5] Compliant platforms also enables full BitLocker Device encryption. A background service ...

  5. Trusted Computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trusted_Computing

    The static information will uniquely identify the endorser of the platform, model, details of the TPM, and that the platform (PC) complies with the TCG specifications . The dynamic information is described as software running on the computer. [37] If a program like Windows is registered in the user's name this in turn will uniquely identify the ...

  6. BitLocker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitLocker

    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]

  7. BIOS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS

    The BIOS uses the boot devices set in Nonvolatile BIOS memory , or, in the earliest PCs, DIP switches. The BIOS checks each device in order to see if it is bootable by attempting to load the first sector (boot sector). If the sector cannot be read, the BIOS proceeds to the next device.

  8. Pre-boot authentication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pre-boot_authentication

    A PBA environment serves as an extension of the BIOS, UEFI or boot firmware and guarantees a secure, tamper-proof environment external to the operating system as a trusted authentication layer. [2] The PBA prevents any operating system from loading until the user has confirmed he/she has the correct password to unlock the computer. [ 2 ]

  9. Disk encryption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_encryption

    Even a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is not effective against the attack, as the operating system needs to hold the decryption keys in memory in order to access the disk. [7] Full disk encryption is also vulnerable when a computer is stolen when suspended. As wake-up does not involve a BIOS boot sequence, it typically does not ask for the FDE ...
