Storing and reading Self Encrypted Disk (SED) password from TPM

Open Strykar opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I have a Self Encrypted Disk (SED). I'd like to use sedutil to lock the disk, but I want the password to be sealed in the TPM module on board the system, instead of in ATA BIOS.

Essentially I want the Pre-Boot Authentication (PBA) image to pick up the password from the TPM automatically upon boot.

Is this even possible?

I am interested in this as well. Basically, I would normally use LUKS + TPM to unlock, and am wondering if I can swap out LUKS with SED to do the same thing.

Did you happen to find an answer?
