[QUOTE="Wrecker4923, post: 1092354, member: 110877"] Attacking a discrete TPM module like this has been known for a while now; that's why the pre-boot PIN is recommended for security-conscious individuals. Additionally, non-discrete fTPM does not have this vulnerability. Law enforcement agencies and national intelligence agencies operate at different levels. Law enforcement agencies often rely on commercial products. You can gauge their capabilities through security product descriptions and forensic literature. On the other hand, national intelligence agencies possess the power and resources to discover/purchase vulnerabilities and keep them confidential. While they may have the technical ability to exploit vulnerabilities, the decision to allocate such resources and risk exposure on an individual is a separate matter. [/QUOTE]
