Welcome Professor. Nice to see you here. That's a good question, and one I'm not sure I can answer right now. At this point, I think I would consider them more of a partner that hasn't come on board yet. ENTU could license Certicom's ECC to be used in their products. To date, they haven't done so. Information on what they're doing in the wireless arena is scant. Their website gives little if any technical detail on it, so I don't have a clear picture on what they're doing. One thing to keep mind, when thinking of Certicom, think of them as providing the building blocks that can be used in building a security solution. They don't provide a "security system" like Entrust does, but rather the tools needed to build a system. This is similar to what RSA does. (Not the Security Dynamics portion, but the RSA portion of the company.) Company's like Verisign and Entrust could license Certicom's ECC technology to be used in their security solutions. To date, they haven't. Baltimore Technologies, however, does support ECC in their certificate authority. certicom.com
