Hardware-Rooted Trust — Impossible to Forge, Clone, or Spoof
Hardware Security ModuleSteven Sprague, TPM Co-Inventor & Veritize CTO
A Trusted Platform Module is a tamper-resistant hardware chip built into your computer that creates an unforgeable identity for your device — like a fingerprint that can never be changed.
Software can be hacked, passwords can be stolen, but a TPM chip is physically embedded in your device's motherboard. It generates cryptographic keys that never leave the chip — not even the device owner can extract them.
This means when a TPM signs something, you can be 100% certain which physical device did it. No spoofing, no impersonation, no doubt.
Hardware root of trust
Unique, non-exportable
PCR registers
Signed attestation
Verify employees are using approved company devices, not personal machines that could be compromised. Enforce device compliance before granting access to sensitive systems.
When signing legal contracts, prove which exact device was used. If someone claims "I didn't sign that," the TPM attestation proves they did — from their specific laptop.
Content creators prove their work was created on a verified device. When AI companies license training data, they have proof of the original source device.
Every sensor and PLC on the factory floor attests its identity. Detect if a device has been tampered with or replaced by a malicious lookalike.
Banks can require TPM attestation before approving large transfers. Verify the transaction originated from a known, trusted device — not a hacker's machine.
Election systems use TPM to verify voting machines haven't been tampered with. Attestation proves the software and hardware are in a known-good state.

No tampering at startup
Verified OS and apps
Hardware-bound credentials
