Using TPM and BitLocker

Trusted Platform Module (TPM)—A TPM is a microchip that provides basic security-related functions, that primarily involve encryption

keys.

BitLocker Drive Encryption (BDE)—A BDE is a full disk encryption feature that protects data by providing encryption for entire volumes. By

default, it uses the AES encryption algorithm in Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) mode with a 128-bit key. This algorithm is combined with the

Elephant diuser for extra disk encryption-specic security.

Windows 10 IoT Enterprise does not support sysprep on a BitLocker encrypted device. Due to this limitation, you cannot encrypt the

device, perform a sysprep, and pull the image. To overcome this issue, you must add or modify the TPM script. The device must not be

encrypted before sysprep (pull). The device encryption is handled by the post push script that uses the TPM_enable.ps1 script that is

C:\Windows\setup\tools\. The post push script must be included before enabling the UWF and after sysprep scripts. The PIN used to

encrypt the client must be passed to the script as an argument.
