Wave to Demonstrate Enterprise Data Security Solutions at Cartes Show in Paris, Nov. 7-9
Monday November 6
LEE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Wave Systems Corp. (NASDAQ:WAVX www.wave.com) announced today that it will demonstrate its EMBASSY line of enterprise security software at the Cartes IT Security trade show, November 7-9, at the Centre des Expositions in Villepinte, France (www.cartes.com).
Wave representatives will be on hand at Infineon's booth (4J 002) as fellow members of the Silicon Trust organization, created by Infineon in 2003 and comprised of other security partners. Wave will demonstrate the advanced functionality of its EMBASSY Trust Suite 2.3 software which, when combined with an industry standard security chip called a trusted platform module, enables organizations to protect data, manage passwords and perform strong pre-boot authentication.
Protection of sensitive enterprise and customer data has become a high priority and the focus of many new government and industry regulations. Many enterprises have been looking for more integrated data security features that are easy to use and are designed to provide constant protection. In addition, many enterprises need the assurance that encrypted data can only be accessed by authorized and authenticated users.
In addition, Wave will also have a model of Seagate Technologies' Momentus 5400 full disc encryption hard drive on hand. Last week, Seagate announced the availability of its DriveTrust Technology, a new security platform designed to protect data on the hard drive. Support for the hardware-based security platform is integrated into Wave's EMBASSY Trusted Drive Manager, a plug-in component to the EMBASSY Trust Suite, designed to work in conjunction with Seagate's DriveTrust to offer comprehensive security functions, including drive activation, drive security policy setup, automated key and password management, strong access control, and instant data destruction for repurposing or drive disposal.

Wave Systems Corp. a leader in the emerging trusted computing marketplace, has joined Infineon Technology's Silicon Trust Partnership Program for 2003.
The Silicon Trust Program is a platform created for those businesses using Infineon's Security IC technology and solutions in their end applications. Its primary goal is to develop and enhance market awareness as well as customer acceptance for individual products and solutions developed by the Silicon Trust's partners.
The Silicon Trust has over the past few years become a well-respected and established partnership program within the security industry. Infineon is focusing resources on continuing to build solid relationships with companies who are bringing about changes for the future of the security industry.
Wave clearly understands the fundamental role that onboard security will play in the immediate future, making it particularly gratifying that they have embraced the Silicon Trust program so wholeheartedly, said the Silicon Trust Program Director, Secure Mobile Solutions Group, Infineon Technologies.
"Wave Systems is pleased to be a key partner with Infineon in making silicon-based security a foundation of the trusted computing marketplace," said Brian Berger, senior vice president, Wave Systems. "As we jointly announced last November, Wave's EMBASSY(R) Suite of Secure Services has been enabled on the Infineon Trusted Platform Module (TPM) to make a secure computing platform, complete with an out-of the-box suite of secure and trusted services, available to personal computer manufacturers. Availability of these solutions will accelerate the adoption of trusted computing systems based on the specifications of the Trusted Computing Platform Alliance (TCPA)."
TCPA-compliant solutions can combine Infineon's TPM, a silicon-based security solution, and Wave's EMBASSY Suite of Secure Services to enable TCPA-enhanced applications, such as trusted digital signatures, document storage, document management, and advanced privacy options.
Infineon's TPM is designed specifically to support TCPA standards compliance in standard PC platforms. It uses the LPC (Low Pin Count) interface defined by Intel Corp. and can be incorporated directly onto system boards or used in daughter board configurations. Wave's EMBASSY suite of advanced secure services and applications works with the Infineon TPM to provide digital signature, document storage, document management, and enhanced privacy options that add value and important new revenue generating opportunities for PC-OEMs and others deploying TCPA-compliant solutions.
