Snackman....If they Upgrade V's At Present.

"The vast majority of computers on the market ship with TPM inside, and by adding TPM-based software from Wave Systems, it was fairly easy for PwC, which already had a public-key infrastructure (PKI) in place, to switch to hardware-based storage of private keys, the foundation for employee desktop authentication."

Presently PWC pay Wave $7.50 per seat,they do not need to
Upgrade yet because instead of using ERAS to manage their
TPM's they use their Own PKI Infrastructure.

While they May upgrade at some point in the future if
they bring in SED systems or use the TPM for more functions
that may require ERAS,it's not on the cards for this year.

What worries me concerning the use of TPM's like this,as
a cheap hardware authentication device,is that all large
scale companies can also use their existing PKI infrastructure
& don't have to upgrade to ERAS.

But any use of TPM's is a Great start......

Trying to keep things real....
