Trusted Computer Group & ISSA Membership

Origin Storage are members of both the Trusted Computer Group and ISSA

The Trusted Computing Group (TCG) is a not-for-profit organization formed to develop, define and promote open, vendor-neutral, industry standards for trusted computing building blocks and software interfaces across multiple platforms.

Trusted Computing is a category of technology developed and promoted by the Trusted Computing Group. The term is taken from the field of trusted systems.

Trusted Computing is the industry’s answer to growing security problems in the enterprise and is based in a hardware root of trust. From this, enterprise systems, applications and networks can be made more secure.    With Trusted Computing, the computer or system will consistently behave in specific ways, and those behaviour’s will be enforced by hardware and software when the owner of those systems enables these technologieS.

Trusted Computing technology will make computers safer, less prone to viruses and malware, and thus more reliable. In addition, Trusted Computing will allow computers systems  to offer improved security and efficiency.

The Information Systems Security Association (ISSA)® is a not-for-profit, international organization of information security professionals and practitioners. It provides educational forums, publications, and peer interaction opportunities that enhance the knowledge, skill, of its members.
