Trusted Computing Group and Members Juniper Networks and Wave Systems to Demonstrate Trusted Enterprise Security at Gartner Group Security and Risk Management Summit

Date Published: June 16, 2010

PORTLAND, Ore., June 16, 2010 - Trusted Computing Group members Juniper Networks® and Wave Systems will show solutions for trusted enterprise security at the June 21-23 Gartner Security & Risk Management Summit, National Harbor, Md. TCG is a Silver Sponsor of the event.

The first demo, hosted by Juniper Networks, will address data leak detection tied to network access control. TNC interfaces enable location, identity, endpoint health, and behavior-based access control decisions for users in an enterprise environment, along with detection and remediation of illicit activity such as data leakage by an endpoint. The demo will feature Juniper's Unified Access Control (UAC) solution, which includes a MAP (Metadata Access Point), a policy decision point and a MAP client.
Trusted Network Connect (TNC) is an open, non-proprietary architecture and set of specifications that enable the application and enforcement of security requirements for endpoints connecting to the corporate network. More info on TCG's IF-MAP protocol and TNC is available on the TNC Developers Page.

Also at the event, TCG member Wave Systems will demonstrate hardware-based full disk encryption. Wave Systems has partnered with leading drive manufacturers Samsung and Seagate to offer easy to use and secure full disk encryption. OPAL compliant encrypting drives protect data where it lives - on the hard drive, by taking advantage of its closed environment to isolate data storage for stronger protection. Wave's EMBASSY® Remote Administration Server allows IT to manage drive security policies, credentials and access rights from one central location. This demo will showcase how an encrypting drive can be initialized and configured in minutes, using Wave's software. More Information on self-encrypting drives and the TCG OPAL specifications are available at http://www.trustedcomputinggroup.org/solutions/data_protection.
