Retaining the recovery key/password
The recovery key/password is generated during BitLocker setup, and can be saved and printed after
BitLocker is enabled. When using BitLocker, always retain the recovery key/password. The recovery key/
password is required to enter Recovery Mode after BitLocker detects a possible compromise of system
integrity.
To help ensure maximum security, observe the following guidelines when retaining the recovery key/
password:
• Always store the recovery key/password in multiple locations.
• Always store copies of the recovery key/password away from the compute module.
• Do not save the recovery key/password on the encrypted hard drive.
Enabling the Trusted Platform Module
CAUTION:
When a TPM is installed and enabled on the compute module, data access is locked if you fail to follow
the proper procedures for updating the system or option firmware, replacing the system board, replacing
a hard drive, or modifying OS application TPM settings.
