Trusted Computing Group

For the eighth year, Trusted Computing Group will host an educational seminar at RSA Conference. This year's event will be Monday, Feb. 27, in Esplanade rooms 301-303 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. This event started years ago as a way for attendees to learn more about emerging industry standards for trusted computing and has evolved into a lab form, lots of demos and now, this year, a focus on how users worldwide deploy trusted computing.

This year, TCG users will focus on the "Paradox of Security." Today's security environment is increasingly challenged not only by traditional threats of data loss, malware, cyberattacks and keeping the bad guys off the enterprise networks but also by newer threats such as increasingly reliance on social networking, bring your own devices and a proliferation of unmanaged devices and workers.
