Removing and Replacing the Trusted Platform Module

The Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is an optional security component which enhances security
capabilities for the server if it is running the HP-UX operating system. The TPM is a security
chip that is unique to the server. It performs key security processes independent of other hardware
components. The TPM creates and stores additional encryption keys from the root key of the
system. The encryption keys created by the TPM encapsulate system application encryption keys
to provide an additional layer of security for sensitive system data.
The fundamental capabilities of the TPM include:
• Platform authentication
• Sensitive information protection
• Data integrity
• System privacy
