The Next-Generation Secure Computing Base (codenamed Palladium) is the name of a cancelled software architecture originally slated to be included in the Microsoft Windows "Longhorn" operating system. Development of the architecture began in 1997.[1][2]
NGSCB is designed to provide an isolated environment where sensitive operations may be performed securely. Microsoft's primary stated objective with NGSCB is to "protect software from software."[3]
