Details
All security applications such as
Embedded Security, Java Card Security,
and biometrics are extendable plug-ins
for the Security Manager interface.
Security Manager must be installed
before an HP-approved security plug-in
can be loaded.
This is the expected behavior of the TPM
firmware utility for models containing
Broadcom-enabled TPMs.
The firmware upgrade tool allows the
user to upgrade the firmware, with or
without an endorsement key (EK). When
there is no EK, no authorization is
required to complete the firmware
upgrade.
When there is an EK, a TPM owner must
exist, since the upgrade requires owner
authorization. After the successful
upgrade, the platform must be restarted
for the new firmware to take effect.
If the BIOS TPM is factory-reset,
ownership is removed and firmware
update capability is prevented until the
Embedded Security Software platform
and User Initialization Wizard have been
configured.
NOTE: A reboot is always
recommended after performing a
firmware update. The firmware version is
not identified correctly until after the
reboot.
Solution
The Security Manager software must be installed
before installing any security plug-in.
