Enabling the Intel Trusted Execution Technology (TXT) Feature For the TPM
Intel TXT provides greater protection for information that is used and stored on the business server. A
key aspect of that protection is the provision of an isolated execution environment and associated
sections of memory where operations can be conducted on sensitive data, invisibly to the rest of the
system. Likewise, Intel TXT provides for a sealed portion of storage where sensitive data such as
encryption keys can be kept, helping to shield them from being compromised during an attack by
malicious code.
To enable the TXT feature, follow these steps:
