Una delle idee su cui è basato palladium è che un software per poter girare dovrà essere "registrato".
Per questa ragione i virus avranno vita dura, come ogni altro programma o sarà palladium compliant o non girerà. Ma a quale prezzo? Sul sito microsoft trovate una chiaccherata con John Manferdelli general manager dell'unità MS che sta lavorando a Palladium.
PressPass: How does "Palladium" work?
Manferdelli: "Palladium" is a new hardware and software architecture. This architecture will include a new security computing chip and design changes to a computers central processing unit (CPU), chipsets, and peripheral devices, such as keyboards and printers. It also will enable applications and components of these applications to run in a protected memory space that is highly resistant to tampering and interference.
The PC-specific secret coding within "Palladium" that makes stolen files useless on other machines is physically and cryptographically locked within the hardware of the machine. This means software attacks cant expose these secrets. Even if a sophisticated hardware attack were to get at them, these core system secrets would only be applicable to the data within a single computer and could not be used to develop hacks on other computers.
