IMO, the NSA doesn't trust RSA for high-grade/long-term security. I don't either. At the ECC 2001 conference, we heard an NSA guy saying that they had decided to transition sensitive information to ECC. BTW, Certicom doesn't license ArgoTech's technology at the moment. I figure it would be worth making a pitch sometime, maybe in Q1 '04 after our first commercial product is out there with some real marketing...
