Description
Technical Field
The present application relates generally to the field of information security, and more particularly, to an ATX power supply-based trusted platform control module and a method of operating the same.

A trusted platform module (Trusted Platform Module, TPM) is a hardware device that interfaces with a computer motherboard for verifying identity and handling variables used by a computer in a trusted computing environment. The TPM and the data stored therein are typically separate from all other components of the computer.
The trusted platform module in the prior art is a separate module at the control of the motherboard, so that it cannot guarantee the integrity of the BIOS code of the motherboard itself. However, today, the BIOS code of the motherboard is more and more vulnerable to attack and tampering, and the conventional TPM cannot guarantee the credibility of the computer platform.
In recent years trusted platform control modules (Trusted Platform Control Module, TPCM) have been disclosed in the prior art, checking the trustworthiness of BIOS code, one such TPCM being disclosed in chinese patent application CN 200810115280.5. However, in the TPCM, the TPCM and the whole BIOS circuit need to be powered on at the same time, which brings about a potential safety hazard, because when the whole BIOS circuit is powered on, electric energy may flow backward to other hardware devices on the motherboard, so that the credibility of the platform may be damaged by tampering with codes in the BIOS circuit; in view of this, in this TPCM, after the TPCM and the entire BIOS circuit are powered on, it is necessary to check the current use state of other hardware resources on the motherboard, i.e., the power-on condition, which in turn increases the complexity and cost of the trusted control process. In addition, when the entire BIOS circuit is powered on, the computer south bridge device will likely be in an operational state, thereby potentially interfering with the access of the TPCM SPI master to the flash memory. In addition, the existing TPCM is generally integrated on the motherboard and the circuitry of the motherboard must be modified, resulting in increased installation costs or hardware costs.

The system environment in fig. 1 includes a power grid 104, an ATX power supply 103, a computer motherboard 106, and a trusted platform control module 100. It should be noted that in this block diagram, other components not related to the inventive concept are omitted for simplicity.
The grid 104 is used to supply the ATX power 103, and the grid 104 is, for example, a 220V ac grid. It should be noted that although the system environment here comprises an electrical grid, in other embodiments the system environment may also comprise other power supply devices, such as a battery.

The ATX power supply 103 may include a timing control circuit 105 configured to transmit and receive timing signals for power up.
The computer motherboard 106 includes an ATX power module 107 and BIOS flash memory. The ATX power module 107 is configured to receive a timing signal from the timing control circuit 105 to power up the computer motherboard 106.

In step 210, the timing control unit 101 sends a control signal to the ATX power supply 103 to instruct the ATX power supply 103 to power up the ATX power supply module 107 of the computer motherboard. Step 210 may alternatively be implemented by:
transmitting a control signal to the ATX power supply 103 by the timing control unit 101 to supply a standby voltage (5 VSB) to the ATX power supply module 107 of the computer main board 106 by the ATX power supply 103, and unlocking the PW-OK signal; and
