Trusted Storage - Why You Need Security in Storage and How to Make Storage Secure

When: June 21, 2001 - 2PM

Overview:

Today's news is filled with stories of lost hard drives and stolen notebook PCs containing private personal data, critical corporate information, and even national security secrets. How can such loss and theft be prevented by the system itself? Storage systems, such as disk drives, as well as tape, optical, and flash devices, are often critical components of a security, privacy, and trust configuration of a computing platform. In fact, data spends most of its productive life in storage. So, the logical next step is to embed security directly into storage devices, such as device-embedded encryption for protection against loss or theft.

This Webinar provides a framework with which to understand why and how storage should be secured and transformed into inherently trusted devices. The TCG Storage Specification provides the technical details for developing a trusted storage device, as well as how computing platform-based applications can exploit those trust and security functions. Secure and trusted storage contributes a critical element to an overall trusted platform.
