Hello,

I am working on the ATMEL TPM(1.2) device on an embedded platform.

I wanted to test the attestation feature of TPM to certify an RSA key pair.
This is what I have understood :

I can use the Tspi_TPM_CollateIdentity_Request() API to tell the TPM to
create a AIK for me.
This API returns a certificate request structure(public AIK + Endorsement
credential of my TPM) encrypted with the public key of the Privacy CA. I
need to send this to the Privacy CA so that the Privacy CA can issue a
credential for my AIK.The reply from the Privacy CA will be encrypted by
the public EK of my TPM. The encrypted blob I have to pass it to
Tspi_TPM_ActivateIdentity() to get the credential.

I have a very basic doubt. Who will behave as the Privacy CA in this case?
Do I have to create my own CA?

Also, how do I send the output of Tspi_TPM_CollateIdentity_Request() to the
PrivacyCA, as in what protocol is to be followed for the communication
between the TPM and PrivacyCA?

I am newbie and any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,
Pritha Ganguly
