SED management has been the one area where Wave has on a few occasions actually had multimillion dollar sales.

It has been argued that they are the leader inSED management. Others (Credant e.g) do this as well. At times I have wondered if Credant getting swallowed by Dell would ultimately reduce the penetrance of Credant products into the market. Outfits like Gardner have long said Wave id the king of the SED, but that it is a niche.

The point is that in Intel's PR today (as pointed out elsewhere) they chose to have Solms as the outside _Intel company to chime in on their new secure SSD.

It would seem to validate the notion that Wave is actually (still) looked at as the leaser in SED management. Wave was not bluelighted in the PR.

“Corporations of every size are facing the growing challenge of protecting sensitive data and ensuring compliance with a litany of data protection laws and regulations,” said Bill Solms, president and CEO of Wave Systems*. “The Intel SSD Pro 2500 Series offers a sound foundation for any data security program, incorporating hardware-level encryption without impacting drive performance. Wave’s on-premise and cloud-based management software complements the Intel SSD Pro 2500 by offering remote drive provisioning, automated password recovery and secure audit logs to document that encryption was in place should a laptop become lost or stolen.”
