Abstract
The Trusted Computing Group (TCG), an alliance of a large number of IT enterprises, has published a set of specifications aiming at cost-efficient extensions of conventional computer architectures with security-related features and cryptographic mechanisms. The TCG core specification concerns the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) that acts as a root of trust of a computing platform and provides cryptographic primitives which can be used to realize more sophisticated security services. Currently, TPMs are implemented as dedicated chips mounted on the motherboard of a computer and many vendors already ship their platforms equipped with TPMs.
