"Secure Blue" from IBM

[Perry E. Metzger]

A few days old but still interesting.

  IBM plans to announce availability of the new technology, dubbed
  Secure Blue, on Monday. The Armonk, N.Y.-based company envisions its
  idea and technology will be used in digital media players, electronic
  organizers, cell phones, computers and devices used by the government
  and the medical and financial industries.

  With Secure Blue, data is encrypted and decrypted as it runs through a
  processor, according to IBM. It is maintained encrypted in the device
  memory, or RAM. One of the few times data would not be scrambled is
  when it is actually displayed.
