What scenarios does Key Transfer Manager (KTM) cover?
The Trusted Platform Module (TPM) security chip generates and stores cryptographic keys in hardware for use by secure applications. Windows does not provide backup and recovery procedures for these keys. Key Transfer Manager assists in the backup and recovery of keys generated by the TPM security chip for scenarios, such as: • Hard drive failure. • Motherboard or TPM chip malfunction. • Transfer to a new trusted PC. • Recovery of certificates or keys on the original platform, should the need arise.
