Many companies trade mark their company name. I've heard the term 'rsa'
pre-dates
the company, so I assume they didn't do that. I don't see it on
the web site.
However, given the, ah, acrimonious nature of this corner of this
marketplace,
it seems prudent to consider another name.

I tried contacting Ascom about licensing IDEA. I've got no
response. Any licensees out there would be willing to
tell me who they're talking to?

this is talking about parallizing processing of an individual message.
the application for this is packet processing in a protocol stack,

Is there a "standard" for Triple DES, in 2-key or 3-key mode?
I don't see it in the FIPS documents, and all the IPsec RFC's
reference the 1979 Tucman article, other than that everyone seems
to point at Schneier or some other book.
Is there an official (in any sense) "standard" for it?
What I heard (from a CheckPoint developer, who had access to the
source code) was that FWZ-1 was a home-grown algorithm and used
a key length somewhere around 64 bits (can't remember exactly.)
I tried to get a publically discussable copy of the algorithm at
the time and failed. It was my impressi

I fail to see why, in the abstract, IPsec and/or TLS (SSL's replacement)

Gilmore etc. have made comments, includingt the quoted passage below
from the Linux IPsec list, indiciating that DSA is "not as trustworthy
as RSA".
