Which Dells have UEFI, Secure Boot, and TPM 2.0

In my workplace we have been issued a directive that all computers must be removed from our network if they don't support the following:

UEFI

Secure Boot

TPM 2.0

Is there a list of Dell models that support these three requirements?

I have the Dell Inspiron 5348 Touch Screen computer. Please could you tell me if this either has the TMP 2.0 or a port where I can add one please?

I have an Alienware Area 51 R4, purchased in 2017. I'm concerned about the TPM 2.0 issue since that impacts Windows 11 updagradability. I checked in the BIOS and see that Firmware TPM and TPM security are grayed out, but I don't know if that just means this computer is getting orphaned early or if there is anyway to enable or upgrade to TPM 2.0? Any advice is gratefully accepted.

If you have a new Dell core i7 11th Gen, does it automatically mean it has UEFI, Secure Boot and TPM 2.0? Can it easily accommodate Windows 11 soon? Thanks!

I have the Optiplex 9020 and it can't be upgraded to 2.0 TMP I only have 1.2 if someone knows how to upgrade it other than with the upgrade tool which doesn't work let me know.

Dell have stated that all systems with a 6th Generation Intel Processor and later have a TPM of version 2.0:

These systems also have a UEFI BIOS with Secure Boot with UEFI BIOS Updates patched in mid 2020 to address a GRUB2 Security Exploit:

Systems with a 4th-5th Generation systems were never patched to address this GRUB2 Security exploit and therefore are more vulnerable and most likely below the minimum system requirements with regards to Windows 11.

I just got out of a chat session with Dell sales support.  No Inspiron machines have these.  Only some Latitude machines have them.

I was given a list of machines that have been tested with Windows 11, but some of them don't satisfy the UEFI/Secure Boot/and TPM 2.0 requirements.  Personally, I'm holding off on any new laptop purchase until Microsoft more firmly nails down the Windows 11 hardware requirements.  The list is here, but not all machines fully satisfy the current microsoft requirements.

The best way to check to see if you have TPM 2.0 is to go into the BIOS settings or go to a command prompt and type in tpm.msc 

Out of the 5 computer systems i have at my house only 1 can be upgraded to the new Wwindows 11 it's my OptiPlex 3020 which has TPM 2.0.  a little disappointing.

UEFI, Secure Boot : Almost Every model after Windows 8.1 release, As microsoft made is mandatory to use UEFI for windows 8 or higher.  So you will hardly find a Dell computer released 2015 without UEFI support. Where there is UEFI there is secureboot. 

TPM although had been kept limited to Enterprise and Business segment as regular users had no use of it.   Share your model number, you can find your model number from support.Dell.com

Seems like your workplace is planning to deploy Bit Locker or any other type of Encryption for security so TPM is required.
