Use Trusted Computing to Make PCs Safer, More Secure, and More Reliable Each year, computer security threats become more severe. The Trusted Platform Module (TPM) makes that possible by providing a standard, complete industry open to implementing trusted computing hardware subsystems in PCs. Written by innovators who helped create TPM and implement advanced products, this practical book covers all aspects of TPM technology: what can be achieved, how it works, and how to write applications for it. Coverage includes What services and capabilities provided by the TPMS device TPM drivers: solutions for code running in BIOS, TSS stacks for new operating systems, and memory-constraint environments Using TPM to enhance the security of your PC's boot sequence key, in depth?: Key creation, storage , loading, migration, use, symmetric keys, and more Linking PKCS # 11 and TSS stacks to support applications with middleware services What you need to know about TPM and privacy - including how to avoid privacy problems Moving from TSS 1.1 to the new TSS 1.2 standard TPM and TSS command references and a complete library of functions
