Solution Against Cold Boot Attack In the Making

Bubba writes "I just discovered this blog: Frozen Cache. It describes a concept for preventing cold boot attacks by saving the encryption key in the CPU cache. It is claimed that by disabling the CPU cache the key will remain in cache and won't be written to memory. The blog says they're working on a proof-of-concept implementation for Linux. Could this really turn out to be a working solution?"http://developers.slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?from=rss&op=image&style=h0&sid=09/01/18/2110235 (http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/01/18/2110235&from=rss)
