Security
Intel® Platform Trust Technology Intel PTT is a firmware-based Trusted Platform Module (fTPM) device that is part
of Intel chipsets. It provides credential storage and key management that can
replace the equivalent functionality of a discrete TPM chip.
NOTE: The options that are listed apply to computers with a discrete Trusted
Platform Module (TPM).
Intel® Platform Trust Technology On Enable or disable the Intel® Platform Trust Technology (PTT) feature in the OS.
By default, the Intel® Platform Trust Technology On option is enabled.
PPI Bypass for Clear Commands Enables or disables the Trusted Platform Model (TPM) Physical Presence Interface
(PPI). When enabled, the operating system skips BIOS Physical Presence Interface
(PPI) user prompts when issuing the Clear command.
By default, the PPI Bypass for Clear Commands option is disabled.
Clear When enabled, the Clear option clears information that is stored in the TPM after
exiting the computer's BIOS. This option returns to the disabled state when the
computer restarts..
By default, the Clear option is disabled.
Dell Technologies recommends enabling the Clear option only when TPM data is
required to be cleared.
SMM Security Mitigation
SMM Security Mitigation Enables or disables additional UEFI SMM Security Mitigation protections. This
option uses the Windows SMM Security Mitigations Table (WSMT) to confirm to
the operating system that security best practices have been implemented by the
UEFI firmware.
By default, the SMM Security Mitigation option is enabled.
For additional security, Dell Technologies recommends keeping the SMM
Security Mitigation option enabled unless you have a specific application which is
not compatible.
NOTE: This feature may cause compatibility issues or loss of functionality with
some legacy tools and applications.
