## Abstract
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Thanks to Microsoft requiring version 2 of a TPM for Windows, the Linux drivers for this technology have been making great strides: We now have an in-kernel resource manager an in-kernel trusted TPM based keys which can give the user the same protection as two factor authentication. This now allows us to build a functional secrets guarding ecosystem around TPM2 with Linux both for personal and Cloud Container use.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This talk will first of all explain how a TPM2 guards secrets and keys, look at the in-kernel technology and how it works, including a brief digression into the TPM Genie security breach and how we countered it in linux and end with a survey of the current state of Linux ecosystem support for TPM based keys.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note this talk is entirely about TPM2 (TPM1 and trousers will not be mentioned, neither will measurement except for key sealing).
