Super X13SWA-TF User's Manual
Endorsement Hierarchy (Available when "Security Device Support" is set to Enable)
Select Enabled for Endorsement Hierarchy support, which contains separate controls to
address the user's privacy concerns because the primary keys in the hierarchy are certified
by the TPM key or by a manufacturer with restrictions on how an authentic TPM device that is
attached to an authentic platform can be accessed and used. A primary key can be encrypted
and certified with a certificate created by using TPM2_ ActivateCredential, which allows the
user to independently enable "flag, policy, and authorization values" without involving other
hierarchies. A user with privacy concerns can disable the endorsement hierarchy while still
using the storage hierarchy for TPM applications, permitting the platform software to use the
TPM. The options are Disabled and Enabled.
PH Randomization (for TPM version 2.0 and above)
Select Enabled for Platform Hierarchy (PH) Randomization support, which is used only during
the platform developmental stage. This feature cannot be enabled in the production platforms.
The options are Disabled and Enabled.
Supermicro BIOS-Based TPM Provision Support
If this feature is set to Enabled, Supermicro BIOS-based TPM provision will be supported.
The options are Disabled and Enabled.
Note: Enabling this feature will lock your TPM on the production platform, and you will
not be able to delete the NV indexes.
TXT Support
Select Enabled to enable Intel Trusted Execution Technology (TXT) support to enhance
system integrity and data security. The options are Disabled and Enabled.
Note 1: If this feature is set to Enabled, be sure to disable Device Function On-Hide
