Microsoft PALLADIUM
INTRODUCTION
Palladium , formally known as Next Generation Secure Computing Base, (NGSCB) is technology that Microsoft says will make computers trustworthy. It will use a security processor attached to a PC motherboard, along with a subsystem of the Windows operating system, called the Nexus, to allow users to create a highly secure virtual space to store sensitive data and run sensitive applications.
Security and privacy are two of the most important -- and difficult -- issues facing the computer industry. Improving the ability of software and hardware to protect the integrity of digital information and the privacy of computer users has become a critical focus for both software developers and hardware manufacturers. Microsoft introduced a new security technology, code-named "Palladium" at the time, that is designed to provide the foundation for a new approach to security and privacy in Windows also known as the Next-Generation Secure Computing Base (NGSCB) for Windows, this technology utilizes an innovative hardware and software design to protect against malicious software in order to enhance privacy, security, and system integrity and help insure that software acts in a way that customers can rely on.
