-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Greetings! I was wondering if in addition to all the work and discussion regarding crypto which generally centres around the transmission path information takes traveling from end-point to end-point, there is any work being done to secure the end-points themselves (I.e. files on your PC etc.) In my view the end-points present the most vulnerability in the overall message path from person to person. It is at these points that the message/information exists as cleartext even if for a short period of time. While of course it is possible to PGP encode your files is this a practical way to go about securing your system? I am aware or RSA secure but is that all there is out there?
