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. |

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. |

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. |

The Trusted Computing Platform Alliance (TCPA) has produced open specifications for a security chip and related software interfaces. The TCPA chip is designed to provide client machines with a minimal but essential hardware base for client side security. Recent papers have attacked the TCPA specification out of ignorance of its goals and capabilities. This paper summarizes what the TCPA chip does, gives examples of important applications of the chip, and shows why these applications are critical to client side security. |
