The new attestation readiness verifier tool for Windows 11, version 24H2, enhances Trusted Platform Module (TPM) reliability by simulating verification of Measured Boot logs. It identifies potential security and reliability issues, ensuring system compatibility and compliance. This lightweight tool is essential for IT admins and OEMs to maintain security health across devices.

Enhancing TPM Reliability with the New Attestation Readiness Verifier
Microsoft has just rolled out a game-changing tool for Windows 11 users: the Attestation Readiness Verifier for TPM reliability. This lightweight solution is designed to enhance the security and reliability of your Trusted Platform Module (TPM). Let’s dive into what this tool offers!
What’s New?
The Attestation Readiness Verifier simulates the verification of Measured Boot logs. It proactively identifies potential security and reliability issues. By using this tool, you can ensure system compatibility and improve security compliance across your devices.
“The attestation readiness verifier tool is here to help you enhance Trusted Platform Module (TPM) reliability!”
Major Updates
TPM is integral to many Microsoft security features, including BitLocker and Windows Hello. The new verifier tool helps you check for issues at both hardware and firmware levels. Here’s what it can do:
- Enable compatibility with various Windows features.
- Identify security and reliability issues proactively.
- Provide visibility into system boot and hibernate-resume operations.
Importantly, it simulates the verification of Measured Boot logs. However, it does not check every policy variation deployed on security services.
What’s Important to Know?
The verifier performs essential checks to assess your device’s security health. It checks if:
- TPM is present and responsive.
- TPM version is 0.
- Valid boot logs exist.
- Platform configuration registers match.
- Necessary certificates are retrievable.
The tool indicates three health states: attestable, possibly attestable, and not attestable. Each state helps you understand your device’s security posture effectively.

How to Use the Tool
Access the Attestation Readiness Verifier through the Event Viewer application. Navigate to Windows Logs, then System. From there, filter the current log for TPM-WMI events. Finally, check Event ID 1041 for boot health information.
Incorporate this tool into your workflows for better visibility into local security health. Whether you’re an IT admin or an OEM, this tool is vital for maintaining security compliance.
Conclusion
Enhance your TPM reliability today with the Attestation Readiness Verifier. It’s a crucial step towards ensuring your systems are secure and compliant. For more updates, keep an eye on Microsoft’s security blog!
