(edit for accuracy*3) Hi goin,
Well, I've lost my danged notes. But the video presentation I watched and cannot relocate seemed to be talking about Intel hardware encrypting every bit of data that either moves or is stored in a piece of equipment, and that Danbury provides remote access tools and suchlike. (Recollection issues, so don't rely on me).

This would allow current software FDE providers to port their functionality to the new environment, without having to worry about the sluggishness of their software encryption process any longer.

Frankly, I haven't got a full focus on this technology. But I'm pretty sure that Wave will offer to Intel something similar to what they are offering to Seagate. With the larger part of the opportunity on the server side of things. And Wave not only knitting together Intel's parts of the process with the TPM, but also rendering all parts of the trust matrix interoperable.

It's just going to be another reason to use Wave's service, and more units deployed. That's my provisional conclusion, anyway. But it also helps the FDE providers in the software vertical as well.

I'm also not clear about the relative advantages of Seagate's solution, and Intel's. They seem to cover somewhat similar territory.

(edit) Re keyboard and printers. Yes, I think you're probably right. Although whether Wave has a role there, I'm not sure.

Hard copies

Not sure which group manages keyboards. And it may be they are already taken care of by the TPM.
