StandardDetails

ISO/IEC 11889 defines the Trusted Platform Module (TPM), a device that enables trust in computing platforms in general. ISO/IEC 11889 is broken into parts to make the role of each document clear. Any version of the standard requires all parts to be a complete standard. A TPM designer MUST be aware that for a complete definition of all requirements necessary to build a TPM, the designer MUST use the appropriate platform specific specification to understand all of the TPM requirements. Part 2 defines the principles of TPM operation. The base operating modes, the algorithms and key choices, along with basic interoperability requirements make up the majority of the normative statements in part 2.
