from the dept. Certicom Corp. said on Tuesday that the popular Handspring palmtop computers will use its security technology for wireless communications in yet another step toward becoming the security standard for wireless devices. Handspring will initially integrate Certicom's SSL plus security product, based on patented Elliptic Curve Cryptography, into its Blazer web browsing software used by Handspring users equipped with a VisorPhone, said Certicom in a statement that gave no financial figures.
