Using TPM

If the TPM setting is activated and backed up on to the USB memory, you can safely store in the TPM chip the

encryption key (TPM key) that encrypts confidential information such as the password, public key pair for SSL

communication, and user certificate that are stored in the machine. Doing so, you can prevent important information

for the machine from leaking. Also, you can recover the system if the TPM chip fails by restoring the TPM key.

Setting TPM(P. 895)

Backing Up the TPM Key(P. 896)

Restoring the TPM Key(P. 897)

Before activating the TPM setting, an administrator must confirm that the Administrator password has been

changed from its default setting. If the password has not been changed from its default setting, third parties

other than an administrator can make backups, which may result in the TPM backup key from being taken

away. Since the TPM key can only be backed up once, this will make the TPM key unable to be restored.

Backup the TPM key immediately on to the USB memory after the TPM setting is activated.

For security reasons, you can only backup the TPM key once. Manage the password set during the backup so

that it is not forgotten.

The security provided by TPM does not guarantee complete protection of the data and hardware. Note that

Canon will not be liable for any failure or damages resulting from the use of this mode.

You cannot access the machine while backing up or restoring data in the USB memory.

Do not remove the USB memory while backing up or restoring data. Doing so may cause damage to the USB

memory, USB port, or the data inside of the USB memory. Also if the USB memory is removed when

restoring, the machine may be damaged.

To use USB memory, press
