I like that. All "secure" operating systems should have that, and all operating systems should have it if they benefit from hardware encryption, which would make the performance overhead a non-issue.
- justizin 12y agohardware encryption is more difficult to audit, likely to have backdoors, etc.. djb recently posted some feedback on how to improve available instructions in x86 for doing the type of maths common in today's crypto code, which is far more useful.
- iancarroll 12y agoWell, encryption with unknown back doors is better then no encryption, I suppose.
- tlrobinson 12y agoNot if it gives you a false sense of security.
