Dear Marc.. and to anyone else concerned.
Encryption is a "hot topic." Most all the focus is upon software solution's utilities. Yet, software utilities don't hack it. Rather, they're hacked. Particularly as provisions of standard "killer" applications. Why not direct the attention of those who analyze software encryption utilities toward hardware encryption technologies? That's my calling. I don't mind doing, free of charge, a bit of promo for WAVX by sending a link to Wave Systems to tech. journalists.
Kremlin is a fine product with which to encrypt personal data. I'd buy it myself if I'd little useful intention of having my files read by others or sending them off to be circulated among a wider audience... and not at all to be broadcast. Aladdin Knowledge [ALDNF] has run up against this problem and not too surprisingly enough, now has a sizeable investment in our WAVX.
So, in the interest of promoting yet another value added feature to Wave System's Technology, I will ask - Couldn't a microprocessor, not unlike our WaveMeter, serve to encrypt, save, and send personal data as well? Couldn't our WaveMeter incorporate this functionality as a kind of free add on utility to gain even wider acceptance?
Pardon me for bringing up these questions. I'm "ignorant," but nevertheless, not one for lacking a little imagination I hope.
As our good friend Jas keeps pointing out, we are witnessing a shift in focus.. a new paradigm. WAVX is out in front of it all.
As of today, software encryption utilities dominate. However, one day with a push from the demands of e-commerce, smart hardware encryption microprocessors may be more valued by individuals as no self-respecting electronic publisher or consumer would think of leaving home without one.. even for personal use.
Sincerely, Marty |
