The 32nd IPP Symposium

Cryptographic Functionality of the Trusted Platform Module 1.2

Ernie Brickell, Intel

The Trusted Computing Group (TCG) has defined the Trusted Platform Module 1.2 (TPM) to support the cryptographic functionality needed for a trusted platform. In this talk, I will describe the cryptographic protocols used for this functionality. I will describe the purpose and implementation of the cryptographic protocols. In particular, I will discuss the protocols for sealing secrets, creating and using an endorsement key, creating and using an Attestation Identity Key, resetting and extending a platform configuration register and locality.
