I'm a newspaper reporter researching a how-to story on crypto. 1) Besides RIPEM, PGP and ViaCrypt PGP, any suggestions for capsule reviews of other public-key products? I'm interested only in public-key implementations. 2) Are there stego programs out there that will weave cipherdata into digital pictures or audio? 3) Has anyone reviewed the AT&T secure phones & modems? Your thoughts? Please reply by e-mail as I am not a list subscriber. I also am a big believer in encrypting all traffic, so here is my public key. I am not looking to quote anyone -- all I need are ideas. However, if you say something temptingly quotable, I'll email you back for permission. Short of your grant of permission, I consider your material for background purposes, i.e., I'm free to use it without attributing where I got it. -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- Version: 2.4 mQCNAi16V84AAAEEAMNVRFU+CqFRhaOnnZ5hdY8D0o/3tdwzV08D1p/gLP9l8fYZ LKVFsuIQKzna4PSMoJyeUVWUcBftLQCNX0K+phzqTdpMPEnH82ToH8JGgRg873Fq WaQkzj3M+K3ExYVC2EVFfAvOa1iCyRCSrEr2hfQOP99XYMFS7w8UUf0SamE5AAUR tAVsZGZqcg== =nH+6 -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- -- Loren Fleckenstein 37211.3713@cserve.com reporter, The Press-Enterprise office tel.
