TPM 2.0 security chip provides comprehensive protection for consumer devices
The STMicroelectronics ST33KTPM2X trusted platform module protects against a wide range of threats to the security of consumer computing devices. Independent validation allows for compliance with security regulations.
STMicroelectronics has extended the STSAFE-TPM family with the introduction of the ST33KTPM2X trusted platform module (TPM) for use in consumer devices such as PCs, workstations and servers.
The ST33KTPM2X TPM offers improved performance, enhanced security, and increased memory capacity, giving manufacturers of consumer devices the capability to adapt to the growing severity of security challenges to connected products. The TPM is suitable for security functions including:
- Platform trusted identity
- Device health attestation
- Anti-counterfeiting
- Protection of keys and critical data
- Cryptography
- TLS secure channel communication
- Self-recovery
The TPM has independently verified security status according to Common Criteria EAL4+, Trusted Computing Group (TCG), and the US government Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-3 specifications. This provides manufacturers with a high level of confidence in the security protection provided by the chip, and helps them to meet the requirements of security regulations.
For integration into product designs, the ST33KTPM2X is compatible with the Windows and Linux® operating systems, and the TCG TPM software stack. It supports firmware upgrades for the addition of new standard features and cryptography capabilities.
