One more story about encryption, Intel processors are also combining PGP technology (pretty good privacy) a technology that has been around for quite a while with the new Centrino processor platform as well as the business V-Pro Platform.  Security is on everyone's mind today...if you haven't thought about encrypted data for security, it might be a good time to read up and see what is available...the "basic PGP" has been open source for a number of years.  BD

The latest version of Intel's Centrino product set--a Core 2 Duo processor, chipset and wireless chip--was launched on Wednesday.

PGP's encryption products will be marketed through Intel's channel of resellers, systems integrators and distributors.

The security firm will sell its Encryption Platform and Whole Disk Encryption products to operate on Intel Centrino- and vPro-based systems running Windows Vista and XP. Intel will integrate PGP's products into its Active Management Technology framework, which enables IT professionals to remotely troubleshoot desktops and notebooks.

"Intel understands the importance of comprehensive data security," said Mooly Eden, vice president and general manager of Intel's mobile platforms group. "Our agreement with PGP Corporation will offer customers the additional security of file, folder, and full-disk encryption on Intel Centrino Pro and Intel vPro processor technology-based systems."
