Mobile Commerce
 

Driven by an explosion in the number of mobile devices and supporting services, the center of gravity for communications and transactions is rapidly shifting towards the wireless and mobile domains, away from the wired domain. Wireless data traffic is expected to grow ten times faster than voice traffic during the next four years.

As a result, it is no surprise that mobile commerce transactions are expected to explode. But this growth will not be possible without the underlying security infrastructure. While the mobile environment is resource constrained by design, security expectations from mobile communication are higher than similar expectations in the wired world due to the concern over data passing open air and the mobile nature of the network end points.

Therefore, one of the major factors affecting the rate of adoption of wireless infrastructure for commercial applications is mobile security in general and communications encryption in particular. But mobile devices are inherently limited in resources, must be small and power conserving and be priced for the general consumer market.

CipherActive offers an enabling technology that bridges the gap in mobile commerce. CipherActive products enable you, as a developer of cellular phones, cellular appliances, Bluetooth devices and any other mobile device to integrate high-performance, low-cost, standard encryption to your product.

If you want to enable your device to participate in mCommerce transactions, you may choose CipherActive's Fast SSL to easily add software only SSL implementation that requires little resources and has performance comparable to dedicated hardware encryption co-processors. The Fast SSL is based on CipherActive's patent pending technological breakthrough and on the unique experience in efficient implementation in DSP and RISC arenas.

If you want your device to be part of a VPN, or implement public key cryptography for any other applications, you will appreciate our PKI Acceleration Library, which will enable your device to have performance comparable to devices equipped with hardware acceleration at the price of a software library.
