TCG offers certification programs to promote consistent quality among products built to TCG specifications. This provides a useful tool to assist customers in verifying security and functional compliance of products built to TCG specifications.
TCG currently offers certification programs in three areas – Trusted Platform Modules (TPM), Trusted Network Communications (TNC) and Storage Devices.
TPM Certification allows TCG members to demonstrate that their TPM product meet a set of Compliance and Security Evaluation requirements that was developed with TCG membership and industry participation input. TPM products passing certification are listed on the Certified Products List. TPM certification is a benefit of TCG membership and therefore membership is required.
The certification requirements for a member’s TPM product to achieve TCG Certification include:
TNC Certification allows TCG implementers to demonstrate that network communication products meet a set of Compliance and Interoperability requirements that were developed with TCG membership and industry participation input. TNC products passing certification are listed on the Certified Products List. TNC Certification is open to both TCG members and non-TCG members.
The certification requirements for TNC products to achieve TCG Certification include:
Storage Certification allows TCG members to demonstrate that their storage products meet a set of Compliance and Security Evaluation requirements that was developed with TCG membership and industry participation input. Storage products passing certification are listed on the Certified Products List. Storage certification is a benefit of TCG membership and therefore membership is required.
The certification requirements for a member’s storage product to achieve TCG Certification include:
The Certification Program Committee has made the resources below available to the public for their education and to increase customer understanding in the procedures and principles used to develop each program.

Membership in the Trusted Computing Group is your key to participating with fellow industry stakeholders in the quest to develop and promote trusted computing technologies.
Standards-based Trusted Computing technologies developed by TCG members now are deployed in enterprise systems, storage systems, networks, embedded systems, and mobile devices and can help secure cloud computing and virtualized systems.
Trusted Computing Group announced that its TPM 2.0 (Trusted Platform Module) Library Specification was approved as a formal international standard under ISO/IEC (the International Organization for Standardization and the International Electrotechnical Commission). TCG has 90+ specifications and guidance documents to help build a trusted computing environment.
