Abstract
Trusted computing incorporates security at the core of a computing platform (PC, PDA, cell phone, etc.) by providing a unique identity, cryptographic capabilities and secure storage. The trusted platform can help ensure the validity of a system by creating a "foundation of trust for software processes".1 This paper, focusing on the Trusted Computing Group's standards, will provide an overview of trusted computing as it stands today: its methods, applications, possible pitfalls and current implementations.
