Trusted Platform Module
Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is a dedicated microprocessor designed to secure hardware by integrating cryptographic keys into devices.
A software can use a Trusted Platform Module to authenticate hardware devices. As each TPM chip has a unique and secret RSA key
burned in as it is produced, it can perform the platform authentication.
CAUTION:
Do not attempt to remove the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) from the system board. After the TPM is installed, it is
cryptographically bound to that specific system board. Any attempt to remove an installed TPM breaks the cryptographic
binding, and it cannot be re-installed or installed on another system board.
NOTE:
This is a Field Replaceable Unit (FRU). Removal and installation procedures must be performed only by Dell certified
service technicians.
