Trusted Computing
bug on 2003/11/02:
„Trusted Computing (TC) is one of several names for a set of changes to server, PC, PDA and mobile phone operating systems, software and hardware that will make these computers "more trustworthy." Microsoft has one version, known as Palladium or Next Generation Secure Computing Base (NGSCB), and an alliance of Intel, Microsoft, IBM, HP and AMD known as the Trusted Computing Group has a slightly different one called either trusted computing, trustworthy computing, or "safer computing." Some parts of Trusted Computing are already in Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 , and the in the hardware for the IBM Thinkpad , and many more will be in Microsoft's new Longhorn version of Windows scheduled for 2006.“

„The TrustedComputing Group (TCG) is an alliance of Microsoft, Intel, IBM, HPand AMD which promotes a standard for a `more secure' PC. Theirdefinition of `security' is controversial; machines builtaccording to their specification will be more trustworthy from thepoint of view of software vendors and the content industry, but willbe less trustworthy from the point of view of their owners. In effect,the TCG specification will transfer the ultimate control of your PCfrom you to whoever wrote the software it happens to be running.“http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~rja14/tcpa-faq.html - Cached
„TCPA stands for the TrustedComputing Platform Alliance , an initiative led by Intel. Theirstated goal is `a new computing platform for the next century thatwill provide for improved trust in the PC platform.' Palladium is software that Microsoft says it plans to incorporate in futureversions of Windows; it will build on the TCPA hardware, and will addsome extra features . Palladium has recently been renamed NGSCB while TCPA has been renamed TCG; however I'll continue to refer tothem here by their original names as they are still more widely used.“http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~rja14/ tcpa-faq-1.0.html - Cached
„The best proposal that I've seen would require all Trusted Computing devices to allow any code to be considered Trusted (without additional logging), if the user is present and has activated a hardware device. This means that if you want to save something that the normal Trusted code won't let you, you can load your own in, WITH the override and do as you wish.“http://www.corante.com/copyfight/archives/ 003348.html - Cached

„The difference is not thatallegiance to a party produces worse decisions than allegiance to aworld-view, method or value system, but rather that adherence to a partyline is one of a few easy shortcuts that we non-pundits already use. As agood citizen I would love to become an expert on every political issue thatcomes up, but I just don't have the time. Instead, I learn about a fewissues that are important to me and for the rest I rely on the opinion ofthe politicians and political parties that I elect to represent me.“http://docbug.com/blog/archives/ 2003_11.html#000056 - Cached

„However, this still leaves open the problem of how many people will actually trade off the laptop full-featured experience for the minimalist PDA approach. I still think this is a small percentage of the overall population of computer users and I wonder if that percentage wil grow or not... will semi-smart phones be enough for anyone not interested in $500 smartphones or PDAs?“http://www.rohdesign.com/weblog/archives/ 000295.html - Cached

„Stuart Okin, chief security officer at Microsoft UK, told ZDNet UK that the Trustworthy Computing initiative by Microsoft is one of chairman Bill Gates' main priorities. Trustworthy computing is a goal that Bill has set for the company to improve the quality of our code and to take security over feature seriously, said Okin, who admitted that Microsoft needs to improve the way our coders write code.“ posted on 2004/07/28http://computercops.biz/articleä.html - Cached
