/* fTPM (Firmware Trust Platform Module) */
* Discrete TPM is a microcontroller that stores encryption keys, passwords and digital certificates. * When TPM technology first hit the market, it was available only in fitlet2 can be ordered with an optional discrete form. * That is, the silicon module was separate from other system elements and communicated with them via a dedicated hardware bus.* More recently, silicon manufacturers have begun to integrate TPM functionality into existing parts.* Advances in on processor technologies combined with the flexibility of the TPM protocols mean that it is possible to implement the TPM as an integrated solution or in firmware.
* fTPM is a Firmware based TPM 2.0 implementation.
* fitlet2, designed around Apollo Lake's SoC features fTPM as part of Intel® Platform Trust Technology (Intel® PTT)is an integrated solution in the Intel® Management Engine.** Intel® PTT is a The platform functionality supports Microsoft requirements for firmware Trusted Platform Module 2.0 (fTPM). <br>Specifically it supports credential storage and key management as used by Windows 8 and Windows® 10. ** Also possible in Linux to encrypt partitions using LUKS (Linux Unified Key Setup). <br> See [[Linux: Full Disk Encryption]]
** Intel® PTT supports BitLocker for hard drive encryption.
** The platform also supports all Microsoft requirements for firmware Trusted fitlet2 is based on Intel Apollo Lake SoC, featuring Firmware TPM as part of Intel® Platform Module 2.0Trust Technology (fTPM).** Intel® PTT is an integrated solution in the Intel® Management Engine for 4th Generation Intel® Core™ processors with ultra-low TDP (Thermal Design Power) platforms and later.
