I made a couple of minor corrections to this myself since yesterday. Please replace my original version with this unless others have already added, changed or deleted.

Wave Systems, Corporation (Wave) is delivering patented technologies to the client-server user community that offers improved security from the center to the edges of the user’s network. Being one of the pioneers in the development of hardware-based security solutions, Wave has evolved from its early beginnings as a security and metering silicon chipset developer to become the leading provider of seamless, trusted-computing utilities.

These utilities enable a variety of secure client-side transactional features and functionalities, while also working to ensure the integrity, privacy, transitioning, and/or recovery of the user’s trust-keys, encrypted material, documents and digital signatures. These user secrets will be hidden from unwanted attack via a TPM (Trusted Platform Module), a separate storage area set aside inside in the client CPU, used to hide these secrets.

Over time, these, and other trust utilities and services, are expected to be upgraded and maintained via a TAN (Trust Assurance Network), a secure attestation server and key-manager designed to ensure that the user attempting to conduct a specific transaction is a trusted computer, having the appropriate keys and profile needed to complete the secure transaction.

The Embassy (EMBedded Application Security SYstem) Trust Suite of utilities and services is currently available through the Wave website (www.wave.com), and is also currently being offered as a bundled solution via the Intel D865GRM motherboard solution, and via National Semi Conductor ‘s (NSM) Safekeeper 21100. Wave is also a member of the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) formed by AMD, Compaq, HP, IBM, Intel and Microsoft: http://www.trustedcomputinggroup.org/home
