Trusted Platforms for Homeland Security
Overview Ongoing threats from hackers, viruses, and worms continue to make security a top priority for IT and business professionals in both the private and government sectors. Critical homeland infrastructures depend on IT for operations command and control. The emerging Trusted Platform Module (TPM), as driven by the industry consortium Trusted Computing Group (TCG), is a standard that allows affordable authentication, encryption, and network access to be accomplished on a variety of computing platforms, most notably today's PCs. This paper examines the hardware and software applications available for immediate implementation and discusses how the TPM chip can be adapted to address many homeland security issues and applications.
