About this tag
Encryption with TPM refers to using the Trusted Platform Module, a dedicated security chip, to protect data through hardware-based encryption. On Windows 11, TPM 2.0 is a mandatory requirement, enabling features like BitLocker drive encryption that ties decryption keys to the chip. This prevents unauthorized access even if the hard drive is removed. The tag covers discussions about TPM's role in Windows 11 upgrade eligibility, its security benefits, and troubleshooting TPM-related issues. Topics include enabling TPM in BIOS, verifying TPM status, and understanding how encryption with TPM safeguards against offline attacks. It is relevant for users planning to upgrade to Windows 11 or seeking to enhance their system's data protection.
