Using the TPM
The embedded Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is embedded in your computer to provide basic security functions. In
combination with the TPM, you can encrypt and decrypt your data to strengthen computer security against inappropriate

TPMs are defined by Trusted Computing Group (TCG) and also called security chips.
