The Trusted Computing Group is an international standards group
developing standards for building blocks and software interfaces
enabling secure computing environments. Trusted Network Connect (TNC),
a work group of TCG, provides a reference architecture and interfaces
for network-based intelligent policy decisions, security automation,
and communication between devices. Many open source and Linux-based
products implement TNC standards; we'll talk about the architecture
and standards, current implementations, and real-world uses for
TNC-enabled technology.

This overview is intended both as a standalone session and as
background for a future session, in which we will take a deep dive
into an open source, Linux-based security automation infrastructure
leveraging the TNC IF-MAP interface.
