Agreed. &nbs= p;There are a few times one would verify a signature inside the TPM,
but they're far from mainstream:

1 - Early in the boot cycle, when there's no = crypto library.

2 - When the crypto library doesn't support the required algorithm.=

3 - When a ticket is = needed to prove to the TPM la
