 Cryptologist tries to break curse, not code - MIT News Office
That was the question for MIT cryptology expert Ronald Rivest, who threw out the ceremonial first pitch in Fenway Park before the Red Sox took on their arch-rivals, the New York Yankees, on April 16.
Rivest's son Alexander, a graduate student in brain and cognitive sciences at MIT, took photos from the stands and posted them on the web.
Rivest got a souvenir of his moment on the Fenway field of dreams: the baseball he threw, stamped with his name and the date.

 Cryptographers Sound Warnings About Microsoft Security Plan - Technology News by TechWeb
Ronald Rivest, an MIT professor and founder of RSA Security, called for a broad public debate about the Microsoft move.
You are essentially renting out part of your PC to people you may not trust," said Rivest in an interview after the panel.
Rivest said some experts have discussed setting up a forum in technical society for such a debate, but he was unaware of any current moves to do that.

Speaking at the annual Cryptographers Panel on Tuesday, Ronald Rivest, co-creator of the RSA encryption algorithm, backed calls for paper ballots to supplement insecure electronic voting technology, while fellow luminaries Paul Kocher and Whitfield Diffie predicted heated battles between privacy advocates and intellectual property owners over the issue of digital rights management.
Rivest cited recent analysis of Diebold Inc. electronic voting systems following a leak of the source code for those systems as evidence that such systems were inadequate to ensure the authenticity of votes cast.
Speaking after Rivest, Kocher, president and chief scientist of Cryptography Research Inc. noted "failed economies" in a number of areas of technology adoption that are causing pain for corporations and ordinary computer users.

 MD5   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
MD5 was designed by Ronald Rivest in 1991.
Significant security flaws in MD5 were reported in 2004, and many systems that use it will probably switch to more secure alternatives.
When analytic work indicated that MD5's predecessor — MD4 — was likely to be insecure, MD5 was designed in 1991 to be a secure replacement; weaknesses were indeed subsequently found in MD4 by Hans Dobbertin.

 CHAFFING AND WINNOWING: CONFIDENTIALITY WITHOUT ENCRYPTION, by Ronald L. Rivest
She might pre-process the message using an "all-or-nothing" or "package transform" (Rivest 1997) — this is a keyless (non-encryption) transform that takes the message and produces a "packaged message" with the property that the recipient (Bob) can't produce the original message unless he has received the entire packaged message.
The packaging operation can be undone by anyone who receives the packaged message; as noted, packaging is not encryption and there are no shared secret keys involved in the packaging operation.
