							TPM Management - tpmtoken_protect

NAME
tpmtoken_protect - encrypt or decrypt data using a symmetric key stored in the user's TPM PKCS#11 data store SYNOPSIS
tpmtoken_protect [ OPTION ] DESCRIPTION
tpmtoken_protect will encrypt or decrypt data using a symmetric key that is stored in the user's data store. The key used to protect the data is a 256-bit AES key stored as a private Secret Key PKCS#11 object. The object has the PKCS#11 label attribute of 'User Data Protection Key'. The key is generated by the TPM PKCS#11 implementation when it is needed the first time. Since it is generated as a private object, it is protected by the TPM on the platform. This command requires the '-i' and '-o' command options to be specified. -h, --help Display command usage info. -v, --version Display command version info. -l, --log [none|error|info|debug] Set logging level. -d, --decrypt Perform a decryption operation -e, --encrypt Perform an encryption operation -i, --infile FILE Use FILE as the input to the specified operation -k, --token STRING Use STRING to identify the label of the PKCS#11 token to be used -o, --outfile FILE Use FILE as the output of the specified operation SEE ALSO

NAME
tpmtoken_init - initialize the user's TPM PKCS#11 data store SYNOPSIS
tpmtoken_init [OPTION] DESCRIPTION

PKCS#11 requires a password (or PIN) for the Security Officer (SO) and the User. The SO is responsible for initializing the token and setting the User password (or PIN). -h, --help Display command usage info. -v, --version Display command version info. -l, --log [none|error|info|debug] Set logging level. -k, --token STRING Use STRING to identify the label of the PKCS#11 token to be used -y, --yes Assume an answer of yes for any confirmation prompts that would normally be asked SEE ALSO
