Intel Trusted Execution Engine
What is Intel Trusted Execution Engine?
Intel Trusted Execution Technology primary goal is to attest to the authenticity of a platform and its operating system and to assure that an authentic OS starts in a trusted environment. The Trusted Platform Module (TPM) as specified by the TCG provides many security functions including special registers.
About (from Intel)
The Intel TXE requires that Microsoft's Kernel-Mode Driver Framework (KMDF) version 1.11 update for Windows 7 is installed first. If the KMDF is not installed, you can see either error 37 or error 28 on the Intel TXE device in Device Manager.
Overview
The most common release is 1.0.0.1064, with over 98% of all installations currently using this version. Upon being installed, the software adds a Windows Service which is designed to run continuously in the background. Manually stopping the service has been seen to cause the program to stop functing properly. It adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. The setup package generally installs about 30 files and is usually about 8.44 MB (8,852,765 bytes). The installed file IntelWebAPIUpdaterActiveX.dll is the auto-update component of the program which is designed to check for software updates and notify and apply them when new versions are discovered.
