Nortel is using Certicom’s security technology to improve cryptographic performance and simply application creation for its UC platform for U.S. Federal Government agencies.
According to Nortel:
Nortel plans to integrate Certicom ECC algorithms into its Application Server 5300, bringing this open, Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)-based software platform into conformance with U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) recommendations for cryptographic implementation.
Nortel has also licensed Certicom’s Security Builder(R) GSE(TM), which provides a pre-approved FIPS 140-2 cryptographic module for application development, saving both development time and cost of certification.
“We’re experts at developing solutions that meet or exceed the most rigorous security requirements,” said Chuck Saffell, chief executive officer, Nortel Government Solutions, which provides networking solutions and IT services for a number of U.S. Federal agencies.
