TCPA relies on a TPM, while Palladium uses some kind of new CPU mode. Palladium also includes some secure memory, a concept which does not exist in TCPA. This is correct. Palladium has ring -1, and memory that is only accessible to ring -1 (or I/O initiated by ring -1).

I'm genuinely sorry, but I couldn't resist this...

Some way in which a digital certificate on a program could actually be verified, perhaps by some kind of remote, trusted hardware device. This way you could know that a remote system was actually running a well-behaved client before admitting it to the net. This would protect Gnutella from not only the kind of opportunistic misbehavior seen today, but the future floods, attacks and DOSing which will be launched in earnest once the content companies get serious about taking this network down. -- - R.

i guess it's appropriate that the world's deepest hole is next to something labelled a trust territory :) --Sean :) - The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending unsubscribe cryptography to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
