Subject: [FDE] New DoD encryption mandate and TPM requirements

John Grimes' (DOD chief information officer) July 3rd memo is
mandating encryption for all sensitive but unclassified information on
mobile devices in compliance with FIPS 140-2.  "Mobile devices"
include laptops, PDAs, CDs, flash drives, etc.
See:
http://iase.disa.mil/policy-guidance/dod-dar-tpm-decree07-03-07.pdf

Also all new computer assets (servers, notebooks, desktops, PDAs) must
have TPM (if available). I guess this is good news for Wavesys
<http://www.wavesys.com/ >.  Wavesys is the only company that makes
enterprise grade TPM management suite that can be centrally managed.

But I think more and more FDE vendors will now start supporting TPM
for encryption key management, and trusted device management.
