TCPA; What's wrong; What's right and what to do about (The)
We are all aware of the criticisms that the TCPA has received. Ross Anderson did a good job of explaining the problems in an abstract fashion, but I felt that there were some things left out (Privacy concerns). I also wanted to see if the TCPA could provide the good things- mandatory access control, integrity protection, and secure storage without the bad things. What I found will appear in an article in my security column of IEEE Computer next month. However, I wanted to briefly mention the findings before hand. |

TCPA stands for the Trusted Computing Platform Alliance, an initiative led by Intel. Their stated goal is a new computing platform for the next century that will provide for improved trust in the PC platform.' Palladium is software that Microsoft says it plans to incorporate in future versions of Windows; it will build on the TCPA hardware, and will add some extra features. Palladium has recently been renamed NGSCB while TCPA has been renamed TCG; however I'll continue to refer to them here by their original names as they are still more widely used. |

Trusted Computing Platform Alliance (TCPA) Trusted Platform Module Protection Profile
This section contains document management and overview information. The PP Identification provides the labeling and descriptive information necessary to identify, catalogue, register, and cross-reference a PP. The PP Overview summarizes the profile in narrative form and provides sufficient information for a potential user to determine whether the PP is of interest. The overview can also be used as a standalone abstract for PP catalogues and registers. |

Trusted Computing, Peer-To-Peer Distribution, and the Economics of Pirated Entertainment
The entertainment industry, facing a formidable threat from peer-topeer piracy networks, is exploring every possible means to attack these networks. The industry is also employing defensive strategies to protect media and media players from those who would extract and copy their content. These content protection systems depend on the computer industry's newly announced ‘trusted computing' technologies. While ‘trusted computing' technologies may better protect media and media players from content extraction by pirates, we assert that the very same technologies can be employed to better protect pirates and their peer-to-peer distribution networks from the entertainment industry. |
