TPM Security

Sets the reporting of the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) in the system.

(Off default)

 

 

When set to Off (default), presence of the TPM is not reported to the operating system.

 

When set to On with Pre-boot Measurements, the system reports the TPM to the operating system and stores the pre-boot measurements

 

(compliant with Trusted Computing Group standards) to the TPM during POST.

 

When set to On without Pre-boot Measurements, the system reports the TPM to the operating system and bypasses pre-boot

 

measurements.

 

 

TPM

Changes the operational state of the TPM.

Activation

 

 

When set to Activate, the TPM is enabled and activated at default settings.

 

When set to Deactivate, the TPM is disabled and deactivated.

 

The No Change state initiates no action. The operational state of the TPM remains unchanged (all user settings for the TPM are preserved).

 

NOTE: This field is read-only when TPM Security is set to Off.

 

 

TPM Clear

 

(No default)

 

 

NOTICE: Clearing the TPM will cause loss of all encryption keys in the TPM. This option will prevent booting to the operating system and will

 

result in loss of data if the encryption keys cannot be restored. Be sure to back up the TPM keys prior to enabling this option.

 

When set to Yes, all the contents of the TPM are cleared.

 

NOTE: This field is read-only when TPM Security is set to Off.

System and Setup Password Features

NOTICE: The password features provide a basic level of security for the data on your system. If your data requires more security, use additional forms of protection, such as data encryption programs.

NOTICE: Anyone can access the data stored on your system if you leave the system running and unattended without having a system password assigned or if you leave your system unlocked so that someone can disable the password by changing a jumper setting.
