  RSA - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
RSA is still widely used in electronic commerce protocols, and is believed to be secure given sufficiently long keys.
RSA involves two keys: public key and private key (a key is a constant number later used in the encryption formula.) The public key is known to everyone and is used to encrypt messages.
The security of the RSA cryptosystem is based on two mathematical problems: the problem of factoring large numbers and the RSA problem.

The company currently known as RSA Security was formerly known as Security Dynamics, who acquired RSA Data Security in July 1996 and DynaSoft AB in 1997.

 RSA - a definition from Whatis.com - see also: Rivest-Shamir-Adleman   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-07)
RSA is an Internet encryption and authentication system that uses an algorithm developed in 1977 by Ron Rivest, Adi Shamir, and Leonard Adleman.
The RSA algorithm is the most commonly used encryption and authentication algorithm and is included as part of the Web browsers from Microsoft and Netscape.
Briefly, the algorithm involves multiplying two large prime numbers (a prime number is a number divisible only by that number and 1) and through additional operations deriving a set of two numbers that constitutes the public key and another set that is the private key.

 LinuxDevCenter.com -- Open RSA: The Patent Expires   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-07)
You've got to hand it to RSA Security's marketing team: By releasing its license on the RSA encryption algorithm three weeks before the patent expires, it changed the tone of the story.
The end of the patent means that companies who want to use the RSA encryption algorithm in the United States no longer have to license it from the firm, RSA Security.
In some ways, the end of the patent puts RSA in a situation like businesses that rely on open source software: the jewel at the center of their product offerings is free.

 RSA Security Conference: Identify, Protect, and Patch, Patch, Patch
San Francisco—"Resiliency" seemed to be the catchword today at the 13th annual RSA Security conference—and not just the resiliency of networks and applications to withstand an increasingly fierce and malicious global computing environment, but the resiliency of companies, of economies, of an industry, and even, arguably, of Microsoft.
Despite an obvious and disquieting increase in disastrous security incidents recently, the conference mood—and the conference numbers—are heartening.
RSA told media today that this year's conference had year-over-year increase of 30 percent in attendance, with a robust show floor featuring 200 exhibitors.

 RSA's Coviello Predicts Security Consolidation - Security - Network Computing
Speaking before a packed house of computer security professionals at the RSA Conference in San Francisco, Art Coviello, president of RSA, the security division of EMC, on Tuesday predicted the demise of the standalone security industry within three years.
But Coviello's foresight is more firmly grounded in hindsight, given that security industry consolidation is readily evident and that the traditional model of perimeter protection has largely been supplanted by a defense in depth strategy.
The approach to security that Coviello described -- an information-centric strategy in which data and networks are protected at all times by layered, active defenses -- sounds more like a hindrance to productivity than something that will get more information to more people at the right time.

 RSA Security Announces Roadmap for Strong Authentication
Driven by customers' need for simplicity, security and the ability to manage compliance mandates, RSA Security's roadmap recognizes that authentication is moving from a point product to an enterprise-wide solution, and from password-centric to strong authentication implementations.
RSA Security believes strong authentication is the cornerstone of a comprehensive enterprise IAM solution, and that two-factor authentication will see increasing interest from large enterprises aiming for stronger security inside the firewall, and from small and midsize business (SMB) and consumer markets seeking to better protect identities.
"The IT security industry is at a turning point, as strong authentication becomes mainstream with a broader range of companies, along with consumers, expecting the same levels of security that enterprises have leveraged for years," said Art Coviello, RSA Security's president and chief executive officer.
