RSA Security says it does not believe that relinquishing the algorithm will weaken its position within the computer security market.

This paper presents a design of data encryption and decryption in a network environment using RSA algorithm with a specific message block size.

RSA wanted to make a statement with the early release of the patent -- that RSA Security isn't worried about keeping it secret because it knows how to use it better than anyone else.

RSA is currently doing an internal review of all of its products to see where the algorithm gets invoked and to change those. A company spokesman said the review is expected to be completed next ...

The RSA algorithm has become an encryption standard for many e-commerce security applications. The patent for it was issued to MIT on Sept. 20, 1983, and licensed exclusively to RSA Security.

Within five years the math for cracking encryption algorithms could become so efficient that it may render today's commonly used RSA public key cryptography algorithm obsolete, Black Hat attendees ...

Lockheed Martin’s has “major internal computer network problems,” that one security blogger is linking to compromised RSA tokens, according to published reports.
