TPM
Trusted PlatformModule
To use the TPM, you
must
activate the TPM in the
BIOS Setup
before the software is
installed. The condition for this is that you have assigned at least the supervisor password
(see
"Setting the supervisor and user password", Page 36
Options for using the TPM
You can use the TPM in different ways:

Security API
Smart Security API 4.1 is middleware which supports the entire
range of mobile and stationary clients from Fujitsu Technology
Solutions. Independent of the TPM hardware, it is needed
by everyone who uses a PKI Smart Security environment for
identi
fi
cation purposes.
Microsoft® BitLocker
BitLocker Drive Encryption (BDE) is a feature of Microsoft® Vista
Enterprise and Ultimate Editions for encryption of the hard disk
drive. Here, BitLocker uses the TPM for the storage of the recovery
data which are used for decryption of the partition.
It is also possible to use BitLocker without TPM and to use just
the USB Dongle for the storage of the encryption key. This option
is particularly interesting if Vista is installed on a computer on
which either an older version of TPM (pre version 1.2) or no TPM
is installed.
A requirement for BitLocker is that you must have set up at least
two partitions on your hard disk. The
fi
rst partition contains the
booting information. The second, larger partition is encrypted and
contains the operating system and the user data.
Important:
The partitions must be set up before Windows Vista
is installed.
