Description :

securely (without ever being exposed in memory), verify a platform's
software state using cryptographic hashes and more.

Update Information:

This update fixes the ability of tpm-tools to use NVRAM areas. Previously this functionality was disabled by a patch that worked around a build issue in v1.3.7. The patch is no longer necessary with v1.3.8 and it has been dropped.
