Abstract

Being more dependent upon IT than ever, today's businesses are concerned with cyber-security as their IT assets are under the threats of sophisticated and frequent attacks from both outside and inside adversaries. Organizations endeavor to find an ultimate solution.

Among those efforts is the trusted computing model proposed by the Trusted Computing Group (TCG). In this talk, we elaborate the details of the TCG model and discuss its applications and limitations from both academic and industrial perspectives.
