computers include the Infineon TPM, which is the only common criteria certified chip to meet TCG
specifications.
Embedded Security for HP ProtectTools protects against unauthorized access to user data or

Creation of a personal secure drive (PSD) for protecting user data
●
Data management functions, such as backing up and restoring the key hierarchy
● Support for third-party applications (such as Microsoft Outlook and Internet Explorer) for

an authentication factor when the user logs on to Windows.
