Wildman: Sort of...

EEE is an application built by the various NAC providers. Wave builds the SDK (Software Development Kit) that is sold to the NAC builders.

The NAC builders builds, with the aid of the SDK an application - the EEE - that is then deployed on the client. EEE runs on the client.

EEE is a service that Wave builds for the NAC folks for them to incorporate a solution to prevent the lying endpoint issue.

The EEE SDK provides all the libraries and components needed to use the TPM and TSS to perform integrity measurements of the client utilizing the capabilities of the TPM to do hashing, signing, storing, etc.

I am not yet clear on the economic model but will try to get a handle on this over the next few days. But yes, it appears that EEE is deployed by the NAC folks.

The one thing that is clear is that adoption of EEE by the NAC folks would be a huge driver for enterprises to turn on the TPMs
