Trusted Computing Group (TCG) Microsoft, Intel, IBM, HP and AMD, a coalition which is a "safe" promotes a standard for PCs. "Security" of their definition is controversial, machines are manufactured to their specifications and is reliable in terms of software vendors and content industry, but will be less reliable from the perspective of their respective owners. Indeed, TCG specification transfer the ultimate control of your PC, that whoever wrote the software to be running.

Yes, even more than today). TCG project is known by many names. `" The original, and still is used by IBM, while Microsoft calls it "treacherous computing Trusted Computing" and the Free Software Foundation as a "trustworthy computing future, I will call on TC, after which more taste are obvious. "other. names that you can see, (the TCG name) TCPA, Palladium (old name for Microsoft's version, published in 2004) and NGSCB (Microsoft's new name) and Intel. that it started to call "Safe Computing" Many observers believe that the confusion -. TC intends what exactly would a developer to distract attention.

TC is a computing platform that has to do with application software, and applications of their authors, and others that can secure communications with offers. The original motivation digital rights (DRM) was managing: Disney DVD sell to understand and can run on a TC platform, but it is not possible to copy. The music for the music industry that will be able to download the slide do not sell. If you sell CDs that you have only three times, or just to play on your birthday you can use. Open all kinds of new marketing possibilities.

TC also very difficult for you to run the software without a license. TC run out and away from the first version of software piracy destroyed. Since then, Microsoft's intent at the time, TC refused to do so, but in 2003, Weis, senior Microsoft does not deny that the fight against piracy was denied a goal: to help "the run the software piracy is not only our goals in life, "he said. The proposed system are subtle, however. TC is to protect the application software registration system, so that the software is licensed under the new ecology. In addition, TC CT better application with other applications, the old non TC applications (including applications Pirate) so close to the low price.
