Trusted Platform Module (TPM) (device-dependent)
To use the TPM, you must activate the TPM in the BIOS Setup before the software is installed. The
condition for this is that you have assigned at least the supervisor password
Enabling TPM
• Requirement: You have set a supervisor password.
► Call up the BIOS Setup and select the Security menu.
► Mark the TPM (Security Chip) Setting eld and press the Enter key
► Select the "Security Chip" "Enabled" entry to activate the TPM
Once you have activated the TPM through a reboot, the Clear Security Chip menu option
appears.
With Clear Security Chip, you can delete the owner in the TPM, if the TPM has already been
used. With Enabled, all secret keys generated by applications (e.g. SRK - Storage Root Keys,
AIK - Attestation Identity Keys, etc.) are deleted.
Please note that you will then no longer be able to access the data you have encrypted with the
keys based on that holder.
► Select the Exit Saving Changes option in the Exit menu.
► Press the Enter key and select Yes.
The notebook will restart, and TPM will be enabled after the reboot.
