Today’s personal
computing environment has advanced in terms of privacy and security, while
maintaining a significant amount of backward compatibility. However the
evolution of a shared, open network has created new problems and requirements
for trustworthy computing. As the personal computer grows more central to our
lives at home, work and school, consumers and business customers alike are
increasingly aware of privacy and security issues.
Palladium is the code name for an
evolutionary set of features for the Microsoft Windows Operating system. When
combined with a new breed of hardware and applications, these features will
give individuals and groups of users greater data security, personal privacy
and system integrity.
Palladium provides a
solid basis for the user’s trust: a foundation on which privacy-and
security-sensitive software can be built. There are many reasons why Palladium
will be of advantage to users. Among these are enhanced, practical user
control; the emergence of new server/service models and potentially new
peer-to-peer or fully peer-distributed service models.
