OK, I submitted an abstract for kernel summit track: "TPM2 story so far...". It would be from the angle of thinking it more like a protocol or contract that all kinds of hardware and TEE's can speak than just a chip per se...
Not that motivated to travel, so not a huge disappointment if not accepted :-) But yeah I have an angle and will prepare that one properly if accepted. So done my duty I guess at least...
"Johnson is a Christian nationalist — although he, like most of his compatriots, has certainly not embraced the label. But Mike Johnson the House Speaker is still Mike Johnson the lawyer I interviewed all those years ago: an evangelical called to politics to be a “servant leader” to a Christian nation, dedicated to its governance according to a biblical worldview"
@DemocracyMattersALot Thank you for posting this. Talking Points Memo has great editorials, political analysis and investigative journalism. A lot of ground-breaking stories are published here.
#fosdem2024 Keys are stuck with the TPM. To enable TPM as key store it has to be made simple to use. #TPM#security Unfortunately one can sneak at the bus to the TPM 😯 You can mitigate this by session encryption but that makes TPM even more complicated. Key files are a solution but are still on standardization process.
Today only about shielded key handling. Keys stored in hierarchies. Well-known key on top. TPM 2.0 generates a seed for the storage root key. Input=seed output=key. Finding prime numbers on TPM can take a long time. Elliptic Curve Keys much faster to generate #fosdem2024#TPM#security
TPM 2.0 could carry thousands of keys, RSA/ECC. Separate security hardware module exists in every laptop. TPM functions: shielded key handling, measurement, data sealing #fosdem2024#security#tpm
#NFC geeks/nerds: where can I buy NFC cards with a #ST25TA64K chip? It seems that is the chip with the biggest storage available? Or do you know of other standard type 4 tags with 8kB or more?
"Deficiencies of power in the present are compensated with claims of grandeur and power in the future. This is one of the many reasons why the stronger power usually has to take the first step. Resolving things requires setting most of those narratives and aspirations to the side to arrive at some way to live together in the present."
Direction poubelle pour les millions d'ordinateurs sans puce #TPM à partir de 2025 ! Merci qui ? Merci #microsoft !
(Mais bien entendu, de farouches libristes vous proposent toujours pléthore de #linux qui continueront à faire vivre des ordinateurs plutôt que les transformer en déchets polluants)
The tpm-js project actually has quite cool documentation on how different TPM stuff works. Along with an in-browser TPM simulation where you can see the wire format.
