Zusammenfassung:Sensitive information can be managed using a trusted platform module. For example, a system can encrypt target information using a cryptographic key to generate encrypted data. The system can also receive an encrypted key from a trusted platform module, where the encrypted key is a version of the cryptographic key that is encrypted using a public key stored in the trusted platform module. The system can then transmit the encrypted data and the encrypted key to a remote computing system, for example to store the encrypted data and the encrypted key on the remote computing system. Using these techniques, the target information may be secured and stored in remote locations.
