Which of the following is a secure crypto processor that stores cryptographic keys used by other applications?
  1. BitLocker Drive Encryption
  2. TPM
  3. Drive locking
  4. BIOS passwords
Explanation
Answer: B - Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is a secure cryptoprocessor intended specifically to store cryptographic keys used by other applications.

Key Takeaway: BitLocker Drive Encryption is a full disk encryption application designed to provide encryption for entire volumes. It uses three authentication mechanisms: transparent operation mode (the user logs in as usual and the disk encryption key is protected by TPM), user authentication mode (the user must provide pre-boot authentication), or USB key mode (the user must insert a USB key).
