CDR: Cypherus, new encryption suite
I saw in one of the tech email newsrags that F. Lee Bailey was at Comdex promoting a package called Cypherus. Their website, http://www.apmsafe.com/, is a little light on details. It only mentions that Cypherus uses Blowfish with up to 448-bit keys. There's some blather about a "Key Manager" and self-decrypting envelopes, but nothing about asymetrical crypto. No evaluation version that I could find. They claim they'll be shipping in Dec. Anyone heard anything at all about Cypherus?
