I'd like to put together a list of all commercially available encryption products, both the good and the bad, both the standalone and the built-in (to nonencryption products), with information about what algorithms are used in encrypting. I'm particularly interested in *commercially-available* (or free) products for telephonic security (cellular, standard, and fax), device-driver-level computer security products that use encryption, any mail software that uses builtin encryption (calls to RIPEM, PGP, whatever), products that license and incorporate RSA (nonproducts that will do this when they are products include Apple's OCE... is the RSA-compliant version of Lotus Notes out yet?), etc. etc. If you can mail information about such products to arkuat@joes.garage.com or to slippery@netcom.com, particularly the addresses of marketing departments that I can write to to get more information, I will compile a text file of this data and, with Eric Hughes permission, put it up in the cypherpunks directory of soda.berkeley.edu. Please send information about products that are commercially available or freely accessible right now. If you have information about products that you are fairly certain will be on the market within the next six months (before the end of 1993), please send the information but clearly indicate that the product in question is not yet available and clearly indicate a *conservative* estimate of the date the product will be available. Let me emphasize that my use of the word "product" is fully intended to include free software, not just monopolized intellectual property. If you know what encryption algorithm(s) is/are used by the product, such as DES (ECB, CBC, CFB), IDEA, RSA, Vigenere, please indicate that. If the manufacturers of the product have not disclosed the encryption algorithm, then please say so. What I myself know least about are the products for secure telephony, so I'd appreciate information on these the most. But I'm sure I have lots of gaps in my knowledge of hard-disk and e-mail security stuff also. I hope to have a preliminary file ready for soda (if soda wants it) before June 10th. If it's still short, I may post it here so y'all can more easily fill in the gaps.
