Hi Gary,

I think they are doing it, Cardspace is the key enabling technology to 
making it happen. Given how many enterprises are federation-enabled (and 
how simply the rest can be), the biggest missing piece right now is that 
we need an Identity Provider for the Internets.

Of course this only helps to solve the access control problem, not the 
defensive programming problem, you can still shoot yourself in the foot 
with SAML and WS-* (Brian Chess and I gave a talk on this at RSA). But 
at least it will be nice to have the banks and brokerage houses stop 
having people type their username and passwords into web browsers, and 
then blaming the consumer when things go amiss.

hi sc-l,

Here's an article about Mundie's keynote at RSA.  It's worth a read from a software security perspective.  Somehow I 
ended up playing the foil in this article...go figure.

So what do you guys think?  Is this end-to-end trusted computing stuff going to fly with developers?
