The new era of End to End Trust?

At a keynote speech somewhere (the article doesn’t say where!) Ben Chai, the author of the article, heard George Stathakopolous, general manager of security engineering and communications at Microsoft, talk about End to End Trust. The full details of his talk may be found here.

Mr Chai plans to write a three-part series on what he learnt about the Trusted Stack model, an idea that relies on not just hardware trusted security (a Trusted Platform Module, for example), a trusted operating system, and trusted applications, people and data.

I’m not sure if trusted people is the correct term, it’s more trust that the person is who he says he is or has at least told someone how to be who he says he is at the point he was asked.

I look forward to seeing the series of articles.
