Microsoft new security initiative to be an integral part of New Windows "Longhorn"

Quote:
From technology.scmp.com:

Microsoft over the past week has quietly unveiled details about a key new security initiative code-named Palladium, giving the first glimpse into its plan to deliver on its promise of "Trustworthy Computing".
Named after a protective statue of the Greek goddess of wisdom, "Palladium" is being used to describe a broad-based security system for the Windows operating system that will involve both hardware and software.

....

Palladium will most likely be an integral part of the next version of Windows, which is code-named "Longhorn".
