Trusted Computing Group (TCG)
Business Profile
Core Value Proposition
Trusted Computing Group (TCG) provides open, vendor-neutral, global industry specifications and standards for trusted computing that support a hardware-based root of trust across interoperable platforms.
Target Customer
Industry and academic participants; member companies; hardware/software vendors and enterprises involved in security, cloud/virtualization, networks, storage, embedded systems, and mobile devices.
Key Differentiator
Not-for-profit organization that develops and promotes open specifications; vendor-neutral; ISO/IEC standardization of TPM-related technologies; extensive ecosystem with 90+ specifications and guidance documents; focus on hardware-based trust across enterprise, cloud, and IoT computing.
Pain Points
- 1Devices and systems are vulnerable to attacks that manipulate identity and system integrity, not just encryption weaknesses.

- 3Organizations require interoperable standards to secure cloud, virtualization, IoT, and diverse computing environments.
Key Features
- 1TPM (Trusted Platform Module) specifications and TPM 2.0 standard (library standard) recognized as an international standard under ISO/IEC.
- 2Root-of-Trust (RoT) concept providing trusted boot, measurement, secure storage, reporting and verification, and protected cryptographic keys.
- 3Software and hardware extended families: vTPM (software TPM), DICE, MARS, and other RoT-related technologies.
- 4TPM Software Stack (TSS) and Trusted Network Communications (TNC) as part of broader trusted computing stack.
- 5Work Groups and coverage areas including Attestation, Cloud, Cyber Resilient Technologies, IoT, Embedded Systems, Industrial Infrastructure, Mobile Network Equipment, Server, Storage, Supply Chain Security, and more.
- 6Education and training resources, including free TPM training courses.
Target Customer Industries
Competitive Advantages
- 1Open, vendor-neutral standards enabling interoperability across devices, platforms, and vendors.
- 2Formal ISO/IEC recognition of TPM 2.0 library specifications, enhancing credibility and adoption.
- 3Extensive repository of 90+ specifications and guidance documents to support trusted computing implementations.
- 4Hardware-based root of trust concepts that improve security for boot, attestation, and key management across enterprise, data center, and edge environments.
- 5Established communities and education resources to accelerate adoption (including TPM training).
