The main function of the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is not simply to separate "encryption keys" from storage devices, but rather to provide a secure and trusted platform with various security features. Among these functions, the ability to report on system integrity is a key feature of the TPM. Therefore, the main function of TPM includes: D. System Integrity Report

I stand corrected. After further research, i am changing my answer choice to C. Trusted Platform Module (TPM) provides a strong security protection by separating and protecting encryption keys from unauthorized access. This separation helps enhance the security of encryption keys and the data they protect. TPMs are commonly used to securely store and manage cryptographic keys, ensuring that they are not easily accessible to attackers even if they gain access to the underlying system.

C. "A TPM, or a trusted platform module, is a physical or embedded security technology (microcontroller) that resides on a computer’s motherboard or in its processor. TPMs use cryptography to help securely store essential and critical information on PCs to enable platform authentication. They store a variety of sensitive information—such as user credentials, passwords, fingerprints, certificates, encryption keys, or other important consumer documentation—behind a hardware barrier to keep it safe from external attacks." https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/business/enterprise-computers/resources/trusted-platform-module.html
