How to Enable Processor-Based Security

[anandk]

"At last PCs operating under Windows have a security level similar to that used by high performance servers. This technology – known under names that vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, such as NX (No eXecute), EVP (Enhanced Virus Protection), XD (eXecute Disable), or DEP (Data Execution Protection) – allows the processor itself to detect when a malicious code (such as a virus or a Trojan horse) is attempting to run and automatically disables such code, "drowning" the virus. This short tutorial teachs you how to enable this feature.

It also teaches u how to configure Windows to correctly enable this feature.

...both Linux and Solaris have already adopted this technology for years, but for the Windows operating systems this technology is only present from Windows XP SP2 on...

This will just an extra feature that adds an extra security layer to your PC.

I think YOu people know about TPM (Trusted Platform Module) in Windows Vista .. which is a chip which are placed in the upcoming Motherboards..

THis Works with Bit locker and other securities for the system.


What is the Trusted Platform Module security hardware?

The Trusted Platform Module (TPM) security hardware is a microchip that enables your computer to take advantage of advanced security features, such as BitLocker Drive Encryption. The TPM is built into some newer computers. Check the information that came with your computer to see if your computer is equipped with the TPM.

A computer with the TPM can create encryption keys that can only be decrypted by the TPM. The TPM "wraps" encryption keys with its own storage root key, which is stored within the TPM. Storing the storage root key in the TPM chip, rather than on your hard disk, offers better protection against attacks designed to expose your encryption keys.

When you start a computer that has the TPM, the TPM checks the operating system for conditions that could indicate a security risk. These conditions could include disk errors, changes to the basic input/output system (BIOS) or other startup components, or an indication that the hard disk has been removed from one computer and is being started in a different computer. If the TPM detects one of these security risks, BitLocker keeps the system partition locked until you enter a BitLocker recovery password to unlock it.

What the hell you r writing?? Leave it to others to judge, who is confused and who is not. Fighting like small kids, contributing nothing to the thread. Remember there are enough people here on the forum.

By this time all of us know, who is confused.
