Trusted Computing ÿ¿ Getting Started In Three Easy Steps

Overview It is a reality in today’s business environment that enterprise and government data is vulnerable to attack. Critical incidents are reported by the media daily including identity theft, information leakage, data destruction, sensitive data exposure due to lost or stolen computers, and unauthorized access to corporate networks. With the increased vulnerability, enterprises and government are demanding a computing environment that is more trusted, private, safe and secure. The information technology industry is responding to this challenge by delivering standards-based security solutions specified by the Trusted Computing Group (TCG). TCG standards are based on a security chip, placed in a PC, called a Trusted Platform Module (TPM). Working within a new Trusted PC or Trusted Platform, this security chip protects secrets by hardware that would otherwise be more vulnerable and only be protected by software. Wave Systems offers secure services for Trusted Platforms that provide immediate value and return on investment to address pressing security concerns.
