TPM Error Failure – what to do…is your PC / Laptop running the UEFI Bios?

What is TPM?

A TPM (Trusted Platform Module) chip is a specialized hardware component that provides security-related functions. Here’s an overview of its key functions:

  1. Hardware-based encryption:
    • Generates and stores encryption keys
    • Enhances the security of full-disk encryption like BitLocker
  2. Secure boot:
    • Verifies the integrity of the boot process
    • Helps prevent malware from tampering with the system startup
  3. Authentication:
    • Stores passwords, certificates, and encryption keys
    • Can be used for hardware-based two-factor authentication
  4. Anti-tampering:
    • Detects unauthorized changes to hardware or firmware
    • Helps protect against physical attacks on the device
  5. Random number generation:
    • Provides high-quality random numbers for cryptographic operations
  6. Remote attestation:
    • Allows the system to prove its identity and integrity to remote parties
  7. Key protection:
    • Securely stores cryptographic keys, making them difficult to extract
  8. Support for Windows features:
    • Required for certain Windows security features like Windows Hello
