Episode 40: Secure Hardware Architecture and TPM

Security isn’t only about software—hardware matters too. This episode introduces key elements of secure hardware architecture, including trusted computing bases, secure boot processes, and hardware root of trust. We also dive into the Trusted Platform Module (TPM), a hardware chip that provides cryptographic key storage, platform integrity checks, and secure identity verification. You’ll learn how TPMs support secure encryption, authentication, and remote attestation. CISSP candidates must understand how hardware-based protections contribute to a system’s overall security posture—especially in high-assurance or regulated environments.
