All of the Wave responses concerning Microsoft have been very textured. My inference is that they still have not reached the point that they have some licensed or semi exclusive agreement with them despite all the hints over the years. Sure they are trying to work as closely as possible and have collaborated a number of times. I'm thinking the best we will get (maybe) is some acknowledgement that there are certified products out there that support Bitlocker including those of ... and wave Systems. Right now wave appears to have a lock on TPM key management but there are other products that manage keys. I think it is inevitable that one or more will extend their products to support TPM keys especially when Vista becomes available for enterprises. Hopefully Wave's will be considered best in class.

If there is in fact more going on with Microsoft, then they are doing a good job of keeping quiet. I must admit my thinking is influenced by the lack of progress with HP. Another company that almost seems in the bag for a long time but which has not gone to Wave in the way we hoped for.
