Open-source group gets Sun security gift (CNET News.com)
CNET covers the recent donation by Sun of their "elliptic curve" cryptography
technology to the open source community.
"Elliptic curve cryptography will enable secure communications with
devices that don't have as much calculating power as most desktop
computers, said Whitfield Diffie, Sun's chief security officer and a
pioneer of the Diffie-Hellman "public key" cryptography method used
today in SSL and other encryption systems."
