Advanced Root of Trust (TPM, HSM, PUF-based Architectures) Workshop by Tonex
The Advanced Root of Trust Workshop by Tonex explores the critical security foundations provided by trusted hardware elements such as Trusted Platform Modules (TPM), Hardware Security Modules (HSM), and Physically Unclonable Functions (PUFs). Participants will gain practical understanding of how these components establish secure environments for cryptographic operations and protect sensitive assets.
Cybersecurity impact is central—compromised roots of trust lead to systemic vulnerabilities, making strong design and deployment vital. Attendees will also learn how advanced root-of-trust mechanisms mitigate evolving threats, safeguard enterprise infrastructure, and enable resilient security strategies across diverse platforms and applications.
