RSA Licenses Commercial Distribution Rights to RSAREF
=====================================================
RSA announces that it is licensing commercial distribution
rights of its RSAREF software to Consensus Development, allowing
for implementation of commercial Privacy Enhanced Mail (PEM)
applications.
Press Release
--------------
REDWOOD SHORES, CALIFORNIA--JANUARY 9, 1995--RSA Data Security,
Inc. and Consensus Development Corporation jointly announce today
at the RSA Data Security Conference that Consensus Development is
licensing the commercial distribution rights of RSAREF from RSA
Data Security.
RSAREF (pronounced "R.S.A. reff") is short for "RSA reference
implementation" and is a cryptography source code toolkit designed
to allow developers to create PEM (Privacy-Enhanced Mail)software
and other encryption/authentication tools. Until now, RSAREF has
been an unsupported RSA product approved for use only as part of
freeware and not-for-profit software applications.
Consensus Development will now be able to market and license RSAREF
to commercial software developers, and provide software support and
future enhancements to the RSAREF source code library.
