Physical AI
Robots, drones and edge AI systems act in the physical world. TPM 2.0 decides who can power them, connect them and trust them.
Physical AI systems don’t just compute - they sense, move and act in the real world. That raises the stakes of one question: who is allowed to switch on motors or radios? Every discrete TPM 2.0, from Infineon, Nuvoton, STMicroelectronics and others, can drive general-purpose I/O pins directly. With Secure GPIO, a pin follows the TPM’s security policy instead of weak software rules.
Sensitive functions stay physically disabled by default and are enabled only when the TPM security conditions are met. No separate secure microcontroller, and no TPM specialist required.

Why physical control is hard to secure
Hardware within reach
Humanoids, drones and field robots work where people can reach them. A case can be opened, a sensor tampered with or the AI model copied off the storage, often without anyone noticing.
Software decides too much
When the operating system controls when an actuator gets power or a radio switches on, a compromised OS, a malicious application or a remote attacker controls it too.
Always connected
Drones and robots stay on radio and cellular links in the field, so a compromised system can be reached - or reach out - from anywhere.
How EnactTrust secures machines that act
Secure GPIO
Tamper and lid-open detection, authorized actuator power and radio gating - hardware switches follow the TPM's policy, not whichever software can reach them.
Learn about Secure GPIOSecure Storage
AI models and their weights protected at rest, together with certificates, configuration and secrets, by the device's own TPM 2.0.
Learn about Secure StorageStrong Identity
Every robot and drone gets a hardware-locked identity that can't be copied or cloned, so only genuine machines join your fleet and services.
