1.15 Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
The Nuvoton WPCT210 TPM version 1.2 revision 103 component is specifically
designed to enhance platform security above-and-beyond the capabilities of today’s
software by providing a protected space for key operations and other security critical
tasks. Using both hardware and software, the TPM protects encryption and signature
keys at their most vulnerable stages—operations when the keys are being used
unencrypted in plain-text form. The TPM shields unencrypted keys and platform
authentication information from software-based attacks.
