TPM is a component on your tablet PCs mainboard that is specifically
designed to enhance platform security above-and-beyond the capabilities of
today’s software by providing a protected space for key operations and
other security critical tasks. Using both hardware and software, TPM protects
encryption and signature keys at their most vulnerable stages operations

specifically designed to shield unencrypted keys and platform authentication
