TPM based SSL/TLS authentication

["Fortman, Andrew" <an...@assett.net>]

Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible configure QPID so that when it uses SSL it is able to utilize the TPM for public key decryption.

I found this interesting blog post where someone was able to use openSSL to use the TPM to establish a connection between a simple host and client:
https://blog.habets.se/2012/02/TPM-backed-SSL.html

I was hoping to do something similar with the SSL authentication in QPID.

If it's not currently possible, are there any future plans for this?

Thanks,
Andy

HI Andy

The Apache Qpid project comprises many components written in many
different languages (C/C++/Java/Python..). These components can be
deployed to a variety of OSs (Linux/Windows/Solaris etc) and
platforms.   Can you be a little more precise about the Qpid
components that interest you and the target environment you have in
mind?  I personally don't have up-to-date working knowledge of TPMs
but I am sure others here will be able to help if we have a more
focused question.

Keith.
