TPM isn't just for secure boot. Windows utilizes it for Bitlocker full disk encryption. It's just not widely used for other applications.

- cryptonector 2y agoThat's still essentially part of the boot process. You can't use dTPMs as HSMs for TLS or whatever because dTPMs are way too slow.
- sim7c00 2y agoThanks, that's interesting. as commenter noted i'd say this is part of the boot-process, but you are right, it's not technically secure boot related. booting securely != secure boot that's correct :)
