4-15-96, W$U:
"RSA Data May Be Sold in Stock Deal."
Security Dynamics Technolgies, Inc. is in talks to buy
closely held RSA Data Security Inc., the dominant supplier
of privacy technology for the Internet, for stock valued at
about $200 million.
Industry executives said Security Dynamics may hope to
combine its proprietary technology with standard encryption
software from RSA, which could yield products that can be
used with a broader array of computer products.
Some of RSA's partners may be taken aback, since few are
familiar with relatively obscure Security Dynamics.
The largest single RSA shareholder is Addison Fischer,
founder of a Florida security-products concern called
Fischer International.
