商品簡介
Trusted Computing is an emerging technology which will reportedly make computers safer, less prone to viruses and malware, and thus more reliable from an end-user perspective. Chip manufacturers Intel and AMD, hardware manufacturers such as Dell, and operating system providers such as Microsoft, all plan to include Trusted Computing in future products. Government departments including the US Army and Department of Defense now also require that every new PC it purchases must come with a Trusted Platform Module (TPM). This practical introduction debunks the myths around TPMs and trusted computing. It focuses on the main uses for TPMs and includes practical considerations such as when they should and shouldn’t be used, and the advantages of using them. It demonstrates, through real-world case studies and worked examples, how they can be used to substantially improve platform and network security.
