Intel Desktop Board DQ43AP Product Guide For instructions on resetting the password, see "Clearing or Changing Passwords" on page 51. Intel® Trusted Platform Module (Intel® TPM) Intel® Trusted Platform Module (Intel® TPM) is 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, Intel TPM protects encryption and signature keys at their most vulnerable stages-operations when the keys are being used unencrypted in plain-text form. Intel TPM is specifically designed to shield unencrypted keys and platform authentication information from software-based attacks. NOTE Intel TPM uses the onboard coin-cell battery to maintain its monotonic counters. One major function of the monotonic counters is for anti-replay protection of the internal Intel TPM data. If the battery is removed or exhausted, the Intel TPM data will be deleted in accordance with Trusted Computing Group guidelines. Read the Intel Trusted Platform Module (TPM) Quick Reference Guide and back-up the Intel TPM keys and data before removing the battery. Hardware Management Features The hardware management features of Intel Desktop Board DQ43AP enable the board to be compatible with the Wired for Management (WfM) specification. The board has several hardware management features including the following: • Fan speed monitoring and control • Thermal and voltage monitoring • Chassis intrusion detection 22

TPM)
Intel
®
Trusted Platform Module (Intel
®
TPM) is 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, Intel TPM protects encryption and signature keys at their most vulnerable
stages—operations when the keys are being used unencrypted in plain-text form.
Intel TPM is specifically designed to shield unencrypted keys and platform
authentication information from software-based attacks.
NOTE
Intel TPM uses the onboard coin-cell battery to maintain its monotonic counters.
One
major function of the monotonic counters is for anti-replay protection of the internal
Intel TPM data.
If the battery is removed or exhausted, the Intel TPM data will be
deleted in accordance with Trusted Computing Group guidelines.
Read the Intel
Trusted Platform Module (TPM) Quick Reference Guide and back-up the Intel TPM keys
and data before removing the battery.
