Trusted Platform Modul (TPM)
Depending on the ordered configuration, the motherboard contains a Trusted Platform
Module (TPM). A TPM is a chip that adds important security functions to your device, such
as enhanced protection of the PC against unauthorized manipulation by third parties. The
current operating systems, for example, Windows 7 or Windows 10, support these security
functions.
NOTICE
Import restrictions
TPM technology is subject to legal restrictions in some regions and may not be used there.
You could commit a crime by importing or exporting the device in certain countries.
Note the respective import provisions for the TPM module.
Activating the Trusted Platform Module
The TPM can be activated under "Security" in the BIOS setup. Please follow the instructions
in the BIOS setup.
Using the Trusted Platform Module
The TPM can be used in Windows with the "BitLocker" drive encrypter.
The Windows operating system is installed in UEFI mode in the delivery state for this
purpose. It is not possible to use BitLocker under Window Embedded operating systems as
these are installed in MBR mode.
To use BitLocker, follow the relevant instructions in the operating system.
Note
Risk of data loss
If you lose the password for the drive encryption, you will not be able to restore the data. You
will then lose accesss to the encrypted drive.
The warranty does not cover a reset of the hardware in the event of a loss
of a password.
Please store the password carefully and make sure it is protected against unauthorized
access.
