Android has the concept of hardware backed security as TEE and in latest Android i.e., Android Pie devices can have a HSM (Strongbox).

What is the actual difference between TEE and HSM?
Does Android HSM can be used as a cryptography solution such as a Whitebox solution?
Does TEE can be used for the same purpose as mentioned in question 2?
