New TCG guidance gives buyers a way to test PQC-ready TPM claims

Trusted Computing Group published PTP 1.07-based requirements defining PQC-ready and PQC-upgradable TPM designations to guide buyers assessing quantum-safe hardware.

The Trusted Computing Group published requirements establishing PTP 1.07, based on TPM 2.0 Library Specification Version 1.85, as the baseline for a 'TCG PQC-ready TPM', and defined a second designation, 'TCG PQC-upgradable TPM', for chips that can be upgraded to that support. The guidance lets buyers request vendor evidence that TPMs meet end-to-end post-quantum requirements for identities, attestation, and hardware-anchored trust rather than single-algorithm compliance. TCG also announced plans to extend its certification programs to certify TPMs meeting PTP 1.07, noting that 90% of businesses still lack a formal PQC roadmap.

TPMSpy: Validation of Measured Boot Systems by Low-Level Tracing of TPM Usage

Researchers present TPMSpy, a platform-agnostic method validating TPM Measured Boot via low-level tracing, finding inconsistent Linux systemd measurements that break remote attestation and LUKS decryption.

An arXiv paper (2609.05011) introduces TPMSpy, a method that analyzes virtualized system–TPM interactions to independently reconstruct and validate TPM Event Logs without relying on the quoting mechanism, applicable to open and closed systems and demonstrated on Linux and Windows. A longitudinal analysis of Linux systems running systemd versions 245–258 (2020–2025) found wide divergence in Measured Boot usage, undocumented behavioral changes, and no common usage pattern. The authors report inconsistent measurement of user-space systemd services, which prevents reliable remote attestation and LUKS disk decryption on affected systems.

Top 10 Best Endpoint Encryption Software in 2026

A 2026 roundup of ten endpoint encryption products argues the engines are solved and buyers should choose management layers like Intune, Sophos, or Trellix.

The guide ranks ten endpoint encryption options, arguing BitLocker and FileVault have won the engine war so the real purchase decision is the management layer for compliance proof, key escrow, and cross-platform policy. Microsoft BitLocker with Intune is named the baseline for Windows estates, with Sophos, ESET, Trend Micro, Check Point, Trellix, and others covering mixed or regulated fleets. It also warns that TrueCrypt-lineage freeware is unmaintained and that Kaspersky cannot be sold to US customers.

Signing TLS handshakes inside a TPM

Blog post demonstrates signing TLS handshakes in Go with a TPM-held private key; full text was unavailable behind an Anubis challenge.

The title indicates a technique write-up on using a TPM-protected private key to sign TLS handshakes from Go. The full article text was not retrievable because the site serves an Anubis Hashcash-style proof-of-work challenge to automated fetchers, so no additional technical details (code, library, or threat model) could be extracted at collection time.

12 Best Endpoint Encryption Software Compared (2026): Features & Pricing

2026 buying guide compares 12 endpoint encryption tools, framing paid products as management layers over free BitLocker and VeraCrypt engines.

An editorial comparison evaluates twelve endpoint encryption offerings, arguing that full-disk encryption itself is largely solved with free options like Microsoft BitLocker and open-source VeraCrypt. Paid products such as Sophos Central Device Encryption, Broadcom Symantec Endpoint Encryption, and Check Point Full Disk Encryption are positioned around management: central enforcement, recovery-key escrow, pre-boot authentication, and compliance evidence. The guide also warns against unmaintained tools like Rohos for business use and stresses operational concerns over cipher selection.
