CopyTele keeps files private
Encryption solution provider CopyTele has released a hardware-based encryption card (Model ULP-1) that plugs into notebook computers. The ULP-1 is the size of a credit card and operates as an encryption/decryption key that protects data files and e-mail attachments from prying eyes. The ULP-1 also guards against the spread of viruses by encrypting e-mail directories. The ULP-1 has been introduced to retail sales outlets as well as commercial end-users. CopyTele has received export approval for the ULP-1 using the Citadel(TM) CCX or Triple DES algorithms and a 128-bit encryption key from the U.S. Department of Commerce.
