Once known as Palladium and more recently dubbed the Next Generation Secure Computing Base, or NGSCB, the approach was once a key part of Longhorn, the next version of Windows. Although the first piece of that is arriving in Longhorn, it’s only a thin sliver of what Microsoft has been working toward since describing its idea of “trusted Windows” a decade ago.
