About:
Libtpms is a library that provides software emulation of a Trusted Platform Module (TPM). It exposes a C-API that allows applications to interact with the TPM's internal functions, such as cryptographic operations and secure storage. This enables developers to integrate TPM functionality into their software without requiring physical hardware.
Key Features:
  • Software emulation of TPM 1.2 and TPM 2.0 specifications
  • Provides a C-API for integration into applications
  • Supports cryptographic functions and secure state management
  • Enables testing and development without physical TPM hardware
Use Cases:
  • Integrating TPM support into hypervisors like QEMU
  • Developing and testing security applications that rely on TPM
  • Simulating secure boot and attestation processes in software
Alternatives:
  • swtpm – swtpm is a TPM emulator that often uses libtpms as its backend library for the TPM core functionality.
