>From the July 11 _Fortune_ magazine, in an article about "25 cool companies":
The battle over how to ensure the privacy and security of
communication in cyberspace pits the spy masters at the National
Security Agency, with thousands of people and a budget said to be in
excess of $10 billion a year, against a small, privately held
California company. Nearly everyone in Silicon Valley seems to be
rooting for the little guy. RSA is a darling of libertarian hackers
because it sells a way to keep digital exchanges indecipherable by
unwanted eyes, including those of Big Brother.
. . .
Multiple authors, the RSA piece was by Alan Deutschman (deutschman at aol.com).
Interesting blurb, two quotes from Jim at RSA. The article also covers Mosaic
Communications, Enterprise Integration Technologies, McAfee Assoc., Cisco
Systems, Infosafe, Scientific Computing Assoc., Security Dynamics, & others.
On another subject, does RIPEM interoperate with PGP or other public key
software? I have version 1.0.5 for DOS. Thanks for any replies.
