TPM (Trusted Platform Module) – Computerphile
Although most home users don’t spend much time on it, computer security is crucial. So important that many business-oriented computers include special hardware (such as smart card readers) that make them difficult to hack or otherwise compromise.
A TPM (Trusted Platform Module) is becoming a standard feature on new computers, especially business computers. So what is a TPM and why would you want one?
Until recently, only people who cared about TPMs, people who worked in large enterprises where network security was a top priority, needed to know what TPMs were. People who worked on their PCs from home, or who used their computers primarily for gaming and entertainment, didn’t need to know anything about TPMs.
